How to perform key conversions involving length measurements

The formulas for conversion are represented below:

Millimeters to Centimeters Formula

cm = mm / 10


Example: 30 Millimeters in Centimeters:

cm = mm / 10

cm = 30 / 10

cm = 3



Centimeters to Millimeters Formula

mm = cm * 10


Example: 1.5 Centimeters in Millimeters:

mm = cm * 10

mm = 1.5 * 10

mm = 15



Frequently asked questions involving length and distance

100 Milímetros equivalem a quantos Centímetros

Considerando que 1 Milímetro é equivalente a 0,1 Centímetro, você pode utilizar uma regra de três para obter que 100 Milímetros equivalem a 10 Centímetros.

    1 mm - 0,1 cm

100 mm - x

Apply the rule of three and get:

x mm = 10 cmmm

x = 10 cm



100 Centimeters is equal to how many Millimeters?

If every 1 Centimeter we have 10 Millimeters, just multiply the number of Centimeters (100) by 10, so you will obtain that 100 cm equals 1000 mm. Observe the calculation below:

s

mm = cm * 10

mm = 100 * 10

mm = 1000
