To convert 407 centimeters into meters we have to multiply 407 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

407 cm → L_(m)

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

L_(m) = 407 cm × 0.01 m

L_(m) = 4.07 m

The final result is:

407 cm → 4.07 m

We conclude that 407 centimeters is equivalent to 4.07 meters:

407 centimeters = 4.07 meters
