The micron is an obsolete unit of length equal to one millionth (10-6 ) of a meter. It is now known as the micrometer. There are one million microns per meter. A centimeter is one hundredth (10-2) of a meter, so there are 100 centimeters per meter. Therefore, one million (106) divided by 100 (102) is 10 thousand (104). There are ten thousand microns per centimeter.
There are 10,000 microns in 1 centimeter. A micron is 10^-6 meters. A centimeter is 10^-2 meters.

To convert microns to centimetres, divide by 10,000. Therefore, 1 micron is equal to 1/10000 = 0.00001 centimetres.
