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 50.4 meters into centimeters we have to multiply 50.4 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

50.4 m → L_(cm)

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

L_(cm) = 50.4 m × 100 cm

L_(cm) = 5040 cm

The final result is:

50.4 m → 5040 cm

We conclude that 50.4 meters is equivalent to 5040 centimeters:

50.4 meters = 5040 centimeters
