To convert 600 millimeters into centimeters we have to multiply 600 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from millimeters to centimeters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 mm → 0.1 cm

600 mm → L_(cm)

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

L_(cm) = 600 mm × 0.1 cm

L_(cm) = 60 cm

The final result is:

600 mm → 60 cm

We conclude that 600 millimeters is equivalent to 60 centimeters:

600 millimeters = 60 centimeters
