Conversion formula

The conversion factor from millimeters to meters is 0.001, which means that 1 millimeter is equal to 0.001 meters:

1 mm = 0.001 m

To convert 160 millimeters into meters we have to multiply 160 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from millimeters to meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 mm → 0.001 m

160 mm → L_(m)

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

L_(m) = 160 mm × 0.001 m

L_(m) = 0.16 m

The final result is:

160 mm → 0.16 m

We conclude that 160 millimeters is equivalent to 0.16 meters:

160 millimeters = 0.16 meters

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter is equal to 6.25 × 160 millimeters.

Another way is saying that 160 millimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 6.25 meters.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred sixty millimeters is approximately zero point one six meters:

160 mm ≅ 0.16 m

An alternative is also that one meter is approximately six point two five times one hundred sixty millimeters.
