Question

How do I divide centimeters by millimeters?

Donagan

Top Answerer

Convert one unit into the other and then divide one number into the other. For example, if you wanted to know how many groups of 5 millimeters are contained in 10 centimeters, you would first convert 10 centimeters to 100 millimeters and then divide 5 into 100. The answer would be 20 (without units).
