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 125 centimeters into meters we have to multiply 125 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
125 cm → L(m)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in meters:
L(m) = 125 cm × 0.01 m
L(m) = 1.25 m
The final result is:
125 cm → 1.25 m
We conclude that 125 centimeters is equivalent to 1.25 meters:
125 centimeters = 1.25 meters
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter is equal to 0.8 × 125 centimeters.
Another way is saying that 125 centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 0.8 meters.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred twenty-five centimeters is approximately one point two five meters:
125 cm ≅ 1.25 m
An alternative is also that one meter is approximately zero point eight times one hundred twenty-five centimeters.
