Convert centimeters to megameters
Convert between centimeters (cm) and megameters (Mm). See both decimal and scientific notation, with the units shown in each step.
Conversion rules and supported formats
The SI prefix centi means one hundredth, and mega means one million. One centimeter is 0.01 meters and one megameter is 1000000 meters. Dividing these factors gives exactly 0.00000001 megameters per centimeter, or 10⁻⁸ Mm per cm. In the other direction, multiply megameters by 100000000 to get centimeters.
For centimeters to megameters, the steps are: measurement in cm × (1 m / 100 cm) × (1 Mm / 1000000 m). The cm units cancel in the first step, then the m units cancel in the second. The remaining unit is Mm. For the reverse direction, use (1000000 m / 1 Mm), then (100 cm / 1 m).
Calculations use the full input value, including fractions, without intermediate rounding. Decimal notation and scientific notation are each produced from the unrounded converted value. Only the displayed numbers are rounded.
The decimal-places setting controls the digits after the decimal point in the decimal result and in the scientific-notation coefficient. It is not a significant-figures setting. Values halfway between two display choices are rounded upward. For example, 2.5 is displayed as 3 with no decimal places. Trailing zeros are kept.
For a non-zero result, the scientific-notation coefficient is at least 1 and less than 10. If rounding would make it 10, the coefficient is changed to 1 and the exponent is increased by one. Zero is shown with a coefficient of 0 and an exponent of 0. A small positive value may appear as zero in decimal notation; the scientific notation remains visible.
No rounding needed applies to the particular displayed number. A decimal result can need no rounding while its scientific notation is rounded. Neither label verifies the accuracy of the original measurement. The ≈ symbol marks an approximate result.
Enter one non-negative measurement. Whole numbers, decimals, fractions such as 1/3, and mixed numbers such as 2 1/2 or 2-1/2 are supported. The supported fraction characters are ½, ⅓, ⅔, ¼, ¾, ⅕, ⅖, ⅗, ⅘, ⅙, ⅚, ⅛, ⅜, ⅝ and ⅞. They can be used alone or after a whole number, as in 2½.
Use a period as the decimal separator. Commas can separate thousands in the whole-number part: use one to three digits with no leading zero in the first group, then exactly three digits in each following group. The whole-number part can contain up to 12 digits. Scientific notation is an output format, not an input format. Enter a decimal such as 0.000000026.
Unit symbols are optional and case-sensitive. Use cm for centimeter inputs and Mm for megameter inputs. The symbols m, mm and km mean meters, millimeters and kilometers; they do not match either input direction on this page. Adding a unit does not change the selected direction. Lists, sets of dimensions and mixed feet-and-inches measurements are not supported.

Frequently asked questions
- How many megameters are in a centimeter?
- One centimeter is exactly 0.00000001 megameters, or 1 × 10⁻⁸ Mm.
- What is a megameter?
- A megameter is 1,000,000 meters, or 1,000 kilometers. Its symbol is Mm, with a capital M. It is not the same as a millimeter, whose symbol is mm.
- What is the formula for converting cm to Mm?
- Multiply the value in centimeters by 10⁻⁸, or divide by 100,000,000. For example, 2.6 cm is 0.000000026 Mm. You can show the conversion in two steps: divide by 100 to get meters, then divide by 1,000,000 to get megameters.
- How many centimeters are in one megameter?
- One megameter is exactly 100,000,000 centimeters. Choose Megameters → centimeters to convert in this direction.
- Why does a small conversion show zero in decimal notation?
- The result may be too small to appear at the selected number of decimal places. For example, 2.6 cm equals 0.000000026 Mm, which is displayed as 0.000000 Mm to six decimal places. It is not zero; scientific notation shows it as 2.600000 × 10⁻⁸ Mm.

Calculations run in your browser. The measurements you enter are not sent to the server or saved in browser storage. Reloading the page returns the inputs to their initial state.
To understand how the page is used and to improve the service, this page sends semku’s own usage statistics and automatic error reports. They go only to the dedicated endpoint under semku.com/api/telemetry/v1/. They are not used for advertising or third-party tracking.
The usage statistics include stages of use (such as starting an operation or requesting a copy), the times they occur and fixed identifiers that distinguish the page and feature. They do not include the measurements you enter, the results shown or the text you copy. Inputs are not sent as hashes or as size categories either. The full URL and search terms are not sent.
Operations and sessions are distinguished by randomly generated identifiers. In the browser, these identifiers exist only in temporary memory and are not written to cookies or browser storage. No identification based on cookies or combined device characteristics is used.
Error reports contain the error type, code and time, and, where available, a registered program-source identifier with line and column numbers. The error message text and stack traces are not sent. Usage statistics and error reports also carry the site identifier, the deployment version and a random record identifier. For access records such as IP addresses, browser signals (User-Agent Client Hints), region and language, see the paragraph below.
The feedback form sends the rating you chose and the text you typed in the free-text field when you press the send button. The form also sends a random ID that distinguishes the submission, along with the page, site, deployment version and type of request. There are no fields for your name, email address or phone number, and the values you enter are not attached automatically. Before sending your text, the widget removes leading and trailing whitespace and, if you selected a rating, adds [+1] or [-1] at the start; it makes no other changes to your text. After receipt, the collector standardizes line endings and removes leading and trailing whitespace. Please do not enter personal data, passwords, authentication keys or payment details.
