The formulas for conversion are represented below:
UA = cm / 1,496x1013
Example: 30 Centimeters in Astronomical Units:
UA = cm / 1,496x1013
UA = 30 / 1,496x1013
UA = 2,0054x10-12
cm = UA * 1,496x1013
Example: 50 Astronomical Units in Centimeters:
cm = UA * 1,496x1013
cm = 50 * 1,496x1013
cm = 7,48x1014
Considering that 1 Centimeter is equivalent to 6.684x10-14 Astronomical Units, you can use a rule of three to obtain that 100 Centimeters equals 6.684x10-12 Astronomical Units.
1 cm - 6,684x10-14 UA
100 cm - x
Apply the rule of three and get:
x cm = 100 x 6,684x10-14 UAcm
x = 6,684x10-12 UA
If for every 1 Astronomical Unit we have 1,496x1013 Centimeters, just multiply the amount of Astronomical Units (100) by 1,496x1013, so you will get that 100 AU equals 1.496x1015 cm. Observe the calculation below:
cm = UA * 1,496x1013
cm = 100 * 1,496x1013
cm = 1,496x1015
