How to perform key conversions involving length measurements

The formulas for conversion are represented below:

Centimeters to Millimeters Formula

mm = cm * 10


Example: 0.25 Centimeter in Millimeters:

mm = cm * 10

mm = 0,25 * 10

mm = 2,5



Millimeters to Centimeters Formula

cm = mm / 10


Example: 10 Millimeters in Centimeters:

cm = mm / 10

cm = 10 / 10

cm = 1



Frequently asked questions involving length and distance

0.6 Centimeters equal how many Millimeters

Considering that 1 Centimeter is equivalent to 10 Millimeters, you can use a rule of three to obtain that 0.6 Centimeter equals 6 Millimeters.

    1 cm - 10 mm

0,6 cm - x

Apply the rule of three and get:

x cm = 6 mmcm

x = 6 mm



75.7 Millimeters is equal to how many Centimeters?

If every 1 Millimeter we have 0.1 Centimeter, just divide the number of Millimeters (75.7) by 10, so you will get that 75.7 mm equals 7.57 cm. Observe the calculation below:

cm = mm / 10

cm = 75,7 / 10

cm = 7,57
