centimeters = millimeters × 0.1. So 2,500 millimeters is back to 250 centimeters; one millimeter is 0.1 centimeters. See the millimeters to centimeters table.

Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 10: 250 × 10 ≈ 2,500 mm, against the exact 2,500 mm (0.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A centimeter is bigger than a millimeter, so the number of millimeters must come out larger than the number of centimeters. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
