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 425 meters into centimeters we have to multiply 425 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

425 m → L_(cm)

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

L_(cm) = 425 m × 100 cm

L_(cm) = 42500 cm

The final result is:

425 m → 42500 cm

We conclude that 425 meters is equivalent to 42500 centimeters:

425 meters = 42500 centimeters
