1 m = 100 cm

To convert 505 meters into centimeters we have to multiply 505 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

505 m → L(cm)

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

L(cm) = 505 m × 100 cm

L(cm) = 50500 cm

The final result is:
