How to convert Metre to Millimetre
To convert Metres to Millimetres, multiply the value by 1,000.
- Take your measurement in Metres.
- Multiply it by 1,000 — the number of Millimetres in one Metre.
- The result is the same amount, expressed in Millimetres.
To go the other way, multiply Millimetres by 0.001 — or simply divide by 1,000.
For example, a sprint-track straight is about 100 m, which is 100,000 mm.
About Metre and Millimetre
The metre is the SI base unit of length, defined as the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 of a second. It underpins the whole metric system and is used for rooms, fabric, sports fields and scientific work worldwide.
A millimetre is one-thousandth of a metre (1/1000 m) — the smallest line printed on a standard ruler. It is the everyday unit for fine measurements such as engineering tolerances, screw threads, paper thickness and rainfall.
Both the Metre and the Millimetre are metric units, so converting between them is just a change of scale: one Metre equals 1,000 Millimetres, and the Metre is the larger unit.
