Convert cubic centimeters (cm³) to cubic millimeters (mm³) by multiplying by 1000
Home / 8th grade / Ratio proportion rate / Place value: measures / Convert cm³ to mm³
Converting between decimal units of volume like millimetres cubed or centimetres cubed can be done by converting each dimension of the volume separately, then multiplying the converted dimensions. So when converting cubic centimetres to cubic milllimetres, think about the length, width and depth of that volume separately as a certain length in centimetres that must be converted to millimetres.
So a body with a volume of 1 cubic centimetre imagined as a regular cube with sides of 1 centimetre can be converted to a cube with sides of length 10 mm. The volume of the cube in mm³ is then 10 mm x 10 mm x 10 mm = 1000 mm³
Similarly, a volume of 3.4 cm³ could be thought of as a cuboid with dimensions of 3.4 cm, 1 cm and 1 cm. Converting these dimensions to millimetres gives us a cuboid of 34 mm x 10 mm x 10 mm which is 3400 mm³. By converting each dimension of the volume first to the target units, it becomes easier to convert the total volume to those units.
