Converting from Meter (m) to Hectometer (hm)

What is Meter (m)

Meter (m) is a unit of length in the metric system, equivalent to 100 centimeters or approximately 3.28 feet. It is commonly used for measuring distances, heights, and dimensions.

What is Hectometer (hm)

Hectometer (hm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to 100 meters. It is used for longer distances and is often used in road signs, land area measurements, and railway tracks.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from meters (m) to hectometers (hm), you can use the following formulas:

• To convert meters to hectometers, divide the length in meters by 100.
• To convert hectometers to meters, multiply the length in hectometers by 100.

Examples

• 5 meters is equal to 0.05 hectometers (5m = 0.05hm)
• 16 meters is equal to 0.16 hectometers (16m = 0.16hm)
• 6 hectometers is equal to 600 meters (6hm = 600m)
• 16 hectometers is equal to 1600 meters (16hm = 1600m)
