Conversion factor

Some of conversions are easier to be done without online converters. Centimeters, meter, kilometer are decimal fraction system. The decimal system is a number technique in which quantities are represented by the number ten and its powers as the arithmetic basis. It is the most commonly used system.

The decimal system is the one that takes 10 as the reference to a number. So each digit, from right to left, is multiplied by ten raised to the power, starting at 0 and continuing at 1, so on in ascending order. For inches this convert method cannot be applicable.

When we multiply centimeters by 10 we receive another unit. We can also multiply centimeters by multiple 10. To find more information you can check the article that was published here.
