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 508 meters into centimeters we have to multiply 508 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
508 m → L(cm)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in centimeters:
L(cm) = 508 m × 100 cm
L(cm) = 50800 cm
The final result is:
508 m → 50800 cm
We conclude that 508 meters is equivalent to 50800 centimeters:
508 meters = 50800 centimeters
