Conversion formula
The conversion factor from meters to centimeters is 100, which means that 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters:
1 m = 100 cm
To convert 3.8 meters into centimeters we have to multiply 3.8 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from meters to centimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 m → 100 cm
3.8 m → L(cm)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in centimeters:
L(cm) = 3.8 m × 100 cm
L(cm) = 380 cm
The final result is:
3.8 m → 380 cm
We conclude that 3.8 meters is equivalent to 380 centimeters:
3.8 meters = 380 centimeters
