cm 1 to m 1

1 meter = 100 centimeters 1 millimeter (mm) = 0 001 m 1 meter = 1000 millimeters 1 millimeter (mm) = 0 1 cm 1 centimeter = 10 millimeters 1 micrometer (μm) 

In this activity you will convert between metric units of length: kilometres, metres, centimetres, and millimetres 1 km = 1000 m 1 m = 100 cm 1 m = 1000 mm 1 cm  

1 centimeter=1 one-hundredth of a meter kilo- = 1000 Example 1: To convert 4200 cm to meters, write the units in order from largest to smallest km hm dam m

1 cm = 10 mm 100 cm = 1 m 1000 mm = 1 m 10 cm = 0 1 m Ratio scales If the scale of the plan is 1 : 100, this means the real measurements are 100 times 

Looking at the Metric System chart we notice that a centimeter is 100 times smaller than a meter Thus, 1 m = 100 cm Knowing this we can set up a proportion to convert 1 74 m into cm Remember A proportion is a comparison of two equal ratios in which order matters

The cm¡ 1 (pronounced as 'reciprocal centimeter') is for- mally the unit for the quantity ˜¢ , called wave number (i e the inverse of a wavelength) However, it is  

Thus, according to Table A5-1: 1 meter = 102 cm conversely, 1 cm = 10-2 m 103 mm 1 mm = 10-3 m 106 μm 1μm = 10-6 m 109 nm 1 nm = 10-9 m
