CONVERSION OF UNITS OF LENGTH

To convert metres to centimeter multiply by 100.

2 m = 2 × 100 cm = 200 cm

3 m = 3 × 100 cm = 300 cm

1 m 1 cm = 1 × 100 cm + 1 cm = 100 + 1 = 101 cm

1 m 2 cm = 1 × 100 cm + 2 cm = 100 + 2 = 102 cm

1 m 10 cm = 100 cm ++ 10 cm == 110 cm110 cm

3 m 40 cm = 300 cm +++ 40 cm == 340 cm

To convert centimetres to metres divide by 100.

200 cm = 200 ÷ 100 = 2 m

130 cm = 100 cm + 30 cm = 1 m 30 cm

456 cm = 400 cm + 56 cm = 4 m 56 cm

To convert kilometres to metres multiply by 1000.

2 km = 2 × 1000 m = 2000 m

2 km 00 5 m = 2000 m + 00 5 m = 2005 m

3 km 40 m0 = 3000 m + 40 m = 3040 m0

5 km 236 m = 5000 m + 236 m = 5236 m
