Convert meters to centimeters

Distance (meters):
Distance (centimeters):

The calculator allows you to convert meters to centimeters.

Perform the reverse calculation: convert centimeters to meters

1 m = 100 cm
1 cm = 0.01 m = 1 / 100 m

To convert meters to centimeters, multiply by 100.

Example

We are going to convert a distance d of 3 meters to centimeters.
Distance d = 3 m
1 m = 100 cm
d = 3 m = 3 x 100 = 300 cm

Other examples

To convert meters to centimeters, you simply multiply the number of meters by 100, since there are 100 centimeters in one meter.

Here are five examples:

Convert 0.5 meters to centimeters:
0.5 meters x 100 = 50 centimeters

Convert 2.75 meters to centimeters:
2.75 meters x 100 = 275 centimeters

Convert 10 meters to centimeters:
10 meters x 100 = 1000 centimeters

Converter 2.5 meters in centimeters
A carpenter needs to cut a piece of wood that is 2.5 meters long into smaller pieces for a project. He / she wants to know how many centimeters each piece should be.
2.5 m x 100 = 250 cm

A runner completed a 5 kilometer run and wants to know how many centimeters he / she ran.
5 kilometers = 5 x 1000 = 5 000 meters
5 000 meters = 5 000 x 100 = 500 000 centimeters

Meters

The meter is the basic unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). The symbol for meter is "m". Meters are a unit of measurement commonly used to measure length or distance. The meter can be divided into smaller units, such as centimeters or millimeters, or into larger units, such as kilometers.

Centimeters

Centimeters are a unit of measurement used to measure length or distance. One centimeter is equal to one hundredth of a meter, or 0.01 meter. Centimeters can be easily converted to other units of length, such as meters or millimeters, by multiplying or dividing by factors of ten. For example, one meter is equal to 100 centimeters, and one centimeter is equal to 10 millimeters. The symbol for centimeter is "cm". It is a combination of the letter "c" and "m", which stand for centi and meter respectively.
