To convert 380 millimeters into meters we have to multiply 380 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

380 mm → L_(m)

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

L_(m) = 380 mm × 0.001 m

L_(m) = 0.38 m

The final result is:

380 mm → 0.38 m

We conclude that 380 millimeters is equivalent to 0.38 meters:

380 millimeters = 0.38 meters
