To convert 72.5 meters into centimeters we have to multiply 72.5 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

72.5 m → L_(cm)

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

L_(cm) = 72.5 m × 100 cm

L_(cm) = 7250 cm

The final result is:

72.5 m → 7250 cm

We conclude that 72.5 meters is equivalent to 7250 centimeters:
