How do you turn cm into meters?

Answer 1

divide by 100

To go from cm to m you make a chart so the chart looks like this...km hc dk m dc cm mm you start at cm and go up to m as you see that's 2 spaces so you take your number for example 375 start from the back and jump 2 spaces up and ur answer will be 3.75

Answer 2

km to m you have to move the decimal to the right 3 times

m to cm you have to move the decimal to the right 2 times

cm to mm you have to move the decimal to the right 1 time

Here is an example...

3. km = 3000. m (As you can see the decimal is moved over 3 times to the right)

3000. m = 300,000. cm (2 times to the right)

300,000. cm = 3,000,000. mm (1 time to the right)

As you can see 3 kilometers equals 3million millimeters

Answer 3

To convert from centimeters (cm) to meters (m), you need to divide the number of centimeters by 100. This because 100 centimeters is equivalent to 1 meter, or 1 centimeter equals .01 meters.

Answer 4

100 cm = 1 m

1,000 m = 1 km

-----------------------

100,000 cm = 1 km

Answer 5

There are 100 cm in one m. Therefore divide the c value by 100 and the number you get will be the length in meter units.

Answer 6

You divide the number of centimeters by 100.
