10 centimeters in meters

Conversion

10 centimeters is equivalent to 0.1 meters.^[1]

We know (by definition) that: $1 cm = 0.01 m$

We can set up a proportion to solve for the number of meters.

\frac{1 cm}{10 cm} = \frac{0.01 m}{x m}

Now, we cross multiply to solve for our unknown $x$ :

x m = \frac{10 cm}{1 cm} * 0.01 m \to x m = 0.1 m

Conclusion: $10 cm = 0.1 m$

The inverse of the conversion factor is that 1 meter is equal to 10 times 10 centimeters.

It can also be expressed as: 10 centimeters is equal to $\frac{1}{10}$ meters.

An approximate numerical result would be: ten centimeters is about zero meters, or alternatively, a meter is about zero times ten centimeters.

[1] The precision is 15 significant digits (fourteen digits to the right of the decimal point).
