To convert 21.4 centimeters into meters we have to multiply 21.4 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
21.4 cm → L(m)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in meters:
L(m) = 21.4 cm × 0.01 m
L(m) = 0.214 m
The final result is:
21.4 cm → 0.214 m
We conclude that 21.4 centimeters is equivalent to 0.214 meters:
21.4 centimeters = 0.214 meters
