0.8 cm how many meters?

Answer 1

Centimeter means "1/100 of a meter." The prefix Centi- tells us that. Milli- as in millimeter is "1/1000 of a meter."

In this case 0.8cm can be converted into meters by dividing by 100. If you have 100 centimeters therefore you would have 1 meter. In this case you have 0.008 meters, also 8mm
