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 180 centimeters into meters we have to multiply 180 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
180 cm → L(m)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in meters:
L(m) = 180 cm × 0.01 m
L(m) = 1.8 m
The final result is:
180 cm → 1.8 m
We conclude that 180 centimeters is equivalent to 1.8 meters:
180 centimeters = 1.8 meters
