Inches and centimeters are units for measuring the length that belong to two different measuring units. Inch is a unit of length in the British Imperial and American customary measurement systems. A centimetre in international spelling or centimeter in American spelling is a unit of length in the metric system. The relationship of these two system units is given by the formula:

1 inch = 2,54cm, so as to find how many centimeters it has in 10 inches, we multiply 10 inches with 2.54.

10 x 2,54 = 25,4 cm.
