Conversion formula
The conversion factor from centimeters to meters is 0.01, which means that 1 centimeter is equal to 0.01 meters:
1 cm = 0.01 m
To convert 0.2 centimeters into meters we have to multiply 0.2 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from centimeters to meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 cm → 0.01 m
0.2 cm → L(m)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in meters:
L(m) = 0.2 cm × 0.01 m
L(m) = 0.002 m
The final result is:
0.2 cm → 0.002 m
We conclude that 0.2 centimeters is equivalent to 0.002 meters:
0.2 centimeters = 0.002 meters
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter is equal to 500 × 0.2 centimeters.
Another way is saying that 0.2 centimeters is equal to 1 ÷ 500 meters.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that zero point two centimeters is approximately zero point zero zero two meters:
0.2 cm ≅ 0.002 m
An alternative is also that one meter is approximately five hundred times zero point two centimeters.
