Yours is either a trick question or a poorly worded one. There are NO centimeters in a cubic centimeter, because the units -- although they sound similar -- are incompatible. The centimeter is a unit of length, whereas the cubic centimeter is a unit of volume. Think of it this way: Would you ask how many Oranges there are in a barrel of apples? Having said that, a cubic centimeter is a volume equivalent to the volume of a cube that measures one centimeter on each edge.

This question cannot be answered sensibly. A cubic centimetre is a measure of volume, with dimensions [L3]. A centimetre is a measure of length, with dimensions [L]. Basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.

If you squeezed out a tube of toothpaste through a smaller nozzle, you would get a much longer line of toothpaste from the same volume.

One centimeter cubed is equal to one cubic centimeter, since it represents a measurement of volume where the length, width, and height are all one centimeter.

1 meter = 100 cm

1 cubic meter = 1000000 cubic cm

1 cubic cm = 1/1000000 cubic meter = 10-6 cubic meter
