Convert 64 cm to all lengths

Step-by-Step Conversion Process

1. Know the conversion factor: The basic unit conversion ratio from centimeters to millimeters is that 1 centimeter (cm) is equivalent to 10 millimeters (mm).
2. Apply the conversion factor: To convert centimeters to millimeters, multiply the number of centimeters by 10.

Formula: \( \text{mm} = \text{cm} \times 10 \)

For our specific case:

3. Multiply 64 cm by 10.
4. Therefore, \( 64 \text{ cm} \times 10 = 640 \text{ mm} \).
