How to convert micrometers to centimeters

1 micrometer is equal to 0.0001 centimeters:

1 μm = (1/10000) cm = 0.0001 cm

When a distance L in micrometers is divided by 10000, it gives distance in centimeters.

Lcm = Lμm / 10000


Example

To convert 5 micrometers into centimeters, it is divided by 10000:

(5 μm) / 10000 = 0.0005 cm
