millimeter to meter
Please provide values below to convert millimeter [mm] to meter [m], or change ↔.
millimeter [mm]
Definition: The millimeter (mm) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one thousandth of a meter (1 mm = 0.001 m).
Historyandorigin: The millimeter, part of the metric system established in the 18th century, has been used for precise measurements in fields like engineering and science.
CurrentUse: Millimeters are commonly used to measure very small distances, such as in engineering, architecture, and medical fields.
funfact: Millimeters are often used in technical measurements and can represent the thickness of objects like paper or the diameter of small components.
meter [m]
Definition: The meter (m) is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), defined as the distance traveled by light in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 seconds.
Historyandorigin: The meter was initially defined in 1791 during the French Revolution as one ten-millionth of the distance from the North Pole to the equator, and later redefined using the speed of light in the 20th century.
CurrentUse: It is used worldwide as the standard unit of length in various fields including physics, engineering, and everyday measurements.
funfact: The meter is used globally and serves as the base for the SI system of units. Its definition is tied to the speed of light, making it one of the most precisely defined units.

How to Convert millimeter to meter
1 millimeter [mm] = 0.001 meter [m]
1 meter [m] = 1000 millimeter [mm]
we use cross multiplication method
millimeter [mm] → meter [m]
1 → 0.001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0015
