Question

How can you change mm to meters

Answer 1

To convert millimeters to meters, multiply the number of millimeters by 0.001.

To convert meters to millimeters, multiply the number of meters by 1000.

Explanation:

1 millimeter is 0.001 meters.

1 meter is 1000 millimeters.

To convert millimeters to meters, multiply the number of millimeters by 0.001.

Example:

This object is 100 millimeters long. How many meters long is it?

100 x 0.001 = 0.1

0.1 meters.

To convert meters to millimeters, multiply the number of meters by 1000.

Example:

This object is 100 meters long. How many millimeters long is it?

100 x 1000 = 100000

100000 millimeters.

Answer 2

Explanation:

1 meter = 1000 mm

So, 1 mm =
`(1)/(1000)` m

To change mm to meter, divide the given mm value by 1000

Ex: 50 mm = 50 ÷ 1000 = 0.05 m

5 mm = 5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005
