kilometer: 1 km = 1000 m = 10^3 m centimeter: 1 cm = 0.01 m = 10^-2 m -> 1 m = 10^2 cm millimeter: 1 mm = 0.001 m = 10^-3 m -> 1 m = 10^3 mm micron: 1 μm = 0.000001 m = 10^-6 m -> 1 m = 10^6 μm nanometer: 1 nm = 0.000000001 m = 10^-9 m -> 1 m = 10^9 nm Ångstrom: 1 Å = 0.0000000001 m = 10^-10 m -> 1 m = 10^10 Å Notes: The μ in microns, also known as micrometers, is the Greek letter "mu". To get the Å symbol in word, type "shift option a". Commonly needed conversions to and from British/US systems: 1 mile = 1.609 km -> 1 km = 0.622 mile 1 inch ≈ 2.54 cm 1 foot = 12 inches ≈ 30.5 cm 1 meter ≈ 3.28 feet ≈ 39.4 inches
