How many milimeters are in centimeters?

Answer 1

One centimeter is equal to 10 millimeters and

1 millimeter is 0.1 centimeter.
A centimeter (cm) is longer than a millimeter (mm).

There are 10 millimeters (mm) in one centimeter (cm).

1 cm= 10 mm

1 mm = 0.1cm
Centimeters are larger then millimeters, but there are 10 millimeters in one centimeter.

Answer 2

Both centimeter and millimeter use prefixes that are used to denote sub multiples of meter, 0.01 and 0.001. Therefore, to get amount of millimeters in centimeters, factor used with prefix 'centi' has to be divided by factor used with prefix 'milli':

1 centimeter = 0.01 / 0.001 = 10 millimeter

Answer 3

There are 10 millimeters in one centimeter.
