The answer is in the question, as they often are. the first and most important thing and engineer or technicial (or anyone living in the modern world) is learn the prefixes for the metric system. The basic ones are very simple. c (cent) = x100 k (kilo) = x1000 M (Meg) = x1000000 G (Gig) = x1000000000 m (milli) = /1000 u (micro) = /1000000 n (nano) = /1000000000 Now look at your question. You have millimeters (mm) and meters (m). Guess what the relationship between them is? Hint, look a few lines up in this answer.

Millimeters are one-thousandth of a meter. Micrometers are smaller at one-millionth of a meter. Nanometers are even smaller at one-billionth of a meter. Picometers are one-trillionth of a meter. Femtometers are one-quadrillionth of a meter. Attometers are one-quintillionth of a meter. Zeptometers are one-sextillionth of a meter. Yoctometers are one-septillionth of a meter.
A centimeter is larger than a millimeter. There are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter.
Every 1000 millimeters make one meter, so 5300 millimeters make 5.3 meters.
1 meter = 1000 millimeters 1 millimeter = 0.001 meter
There are 1000 millimeters in a meter.
