1 meter is 100 centimeters.
1 centimeter is 0.01 meter.
Therefore to convert centimeters into meters, just Divide by 100.
Examples:
So if you had 330cm it would become 3.3m
500 centimetres is equal to 500/100 = 5 metres
740 centimetres is equal to 740/100 = 7.4 metres.
Metre is the SI unit of length. centi means 1/100th or a hundredth of a unit. This is where centimetre comes from.
Thus 1 centimetre is 1/100 metre
→ to convert cm to m multiply by 100:
m = 100 × cm
To change meters to centimeters, you multiply by 100 because there are 100 centimeters in one meter.
To change centimeters to meters, you divide your amount of centimeters by 100. Therefore: 44.8 centimeters is 0.448 meters.
Multiply by 100. Examples: 3 meters = 300 centimeters 2.5 meters = 250 centimeters 10 meters = 1000 centimeters 7.98 meters = 798 centimeters
Meters x 100 = cm
Divide by 100 !
The conversion factor to change centimeters to meters is 100 centimeters in 1 meter. So, the denominator of this conversion factor is 1.
No because when you divide the milliters with 10 to change into centimeters and then you diivide the centimeters with 100 to change into meters. The answer would be 1.2
You can't "change" centimeters to meters. But you can describe a length or a distance in terms of either unit. -- If you know the length in centimeters, divide that number by 100 to find the number of meters in the same distance. -- If you know the length in meters, multiply that number by 100 to find the number of centimeters in the same distance.
