How to convert micrometers to meters

1 micrometer is equal to 1.0E-6 meters:

1 μm = (1/1000000) m = 1.0E-6 m

When a distance L in micrometers is divided by 1000000, it gives distance in meters.

Lm = Lμm / 1000000


Example

To convert 500 micrometers into meters, it is divided by 1000000:

(500 μm) / 1000000 = 0.0005 m

Micrometers

The micrometer is a unit of length in the metric system and also commonly known as micron. It is equal to 1 × 10-6 meter. The SI symbol of micrometer is μm.

Meters
