There are 10 millimetres in a centimetre.
Hi - 10 is the answer.
The decimal system runs everything around the base of 10.
10 millimetres (mm) = 1 centimetre (cm)
10 centimetres = 1 decimetre (dm) See Note below
10 decimetres (or 100 cm or 1000 mm) = 1 metre (m)
also 1000 metres = 1 kilometre (km)
The 'decimetre' exists as a unit of measurement (1/10 of a metre) but it is not generally used in life.
Small objects up to 1 metre are generally quoted in millimetres, for example you might say an apple was 70mm diameter or your shoe is 300mm long.
Larger objects would normally be described in metres, for example a car might be 5 metres long and a piece of rope might be 25 metres long.
For some strange reason, schools seem to teach the use of centimetres, although it is not in general use outside of primary and secondary education. I gues the reason for using the centimetre is that is a size that children can relate to more easily than mm or m, for example they could relate a cm to the thickness of their finger and have a good feel for how big 5 cm or 10 cm actually is.
Hope this helps.
10. because if you look on a ruler then you can see how many millimetres in a cm because this is shown on a ruler

1 square centimeter is 100 square millimeters.
1 centimetre = 10 millimetres.
There are 100 square millimeters in one square centimeter.
There are 10 millimetres in one centimetre. Therefore, 10 centimetres is equal to 10 x 10 = 100 millimetres.100
There are 87 millimeters in 8.7 centimeters. 8.7 centimeters x 10 millimeters/1 centimeter = 87 millimeters 1 centimeter = 10 millimeters
There are 10 millimetres in a centimetre.

1 square centimeter is 100 square millimeters.
There are 10 millimetres in one centimetre.
1 centimeter = 10 millimeters
1cm equals 10mm
No. There are 10 millimetres in a centimetre.
1 centimeter = 10 millimeters 0.51 centimeter = 5.1 millimeters
10 millimetres = 1 centimetre so 40 mm = 4 cm
Conversion formula: 1 centimeter = 1 * 10 = 10 millimeters
1 centimetre = 10 millimetres.
