Conversion formula
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 520 meters into centimeters we have to multiply 520 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
520 m → L(cm)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in centimeters:
L(cm) = 520 m × 100 cm
L(cm) = 52000 cm
The final result is:
520 m → 52000 cm
We conclude that 520 meters is equivalent to 52000 centimeters:
520 meters = 52000 centimeters
