Conversion formula
The conversion factor from centimeters to meters is 0.01, which means that 1 centimeter is equal to 0.01 meters:
1 cm = 0.01 m
To convert 12.3 centimeters into meters we have to multiply 12.3 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
12.3 cm → L(m)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in meters:
L(m) = 12.3 cm × 0.01 m
L(m) = 0.123 m
The final result is:
12.3 cm → 0.123 m
We conclude that 12.3 centimeters is equivalent to 0.123 meters:
12.3 centimeters = 0.123 meters
