1 cm = 0.01 m

To convert 106 centimeters into meters we have to multiply 106 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from centimeters to meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 cm → 0.01 m

106 cm → L_(m)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in meters:

L_(m) = 106 cm × 0.01 m

L_(m) = 1.06 m

The final result is:

106 cm → 1.06 m

We conclude that 106 centimeters is equivalent to 1.06 meters:

106 centimeters = 1.06 meters
