Enter the length and width measurements in centimeters into the calculator to determine the Cm to Ratio. This calculator can also evaluate any of the variables given the others are known.

Cm To Ratio Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Cm to Ratio.

R = L/W

Variables:

  • R is the Cm to Ratio
  • L is the length measurement in centimeters (cm)
  • W is the width measurement in centimeters (cm)

To calculate the Cm to Ratio, divide the length measurement in centimeters by the width measurement in centimeters. The result is the ratio of length to width in centimeters. For example, if the length is 10 cm and the width is 5 cm, the Cm to Ratio is 10/5 or 2:1. This means the length is twice as long as the width.

What is Cm To Ratio?

A Cm to Ratio is a mathematical comparison between two different measurements, where one of the measurements is in centimeters (cm). This ratio is used to determine the relationship or proportion between these two measurements. For example, if the length of an object is 10 cm and its width is 5 cm, the cm to ratio of length to width is 10:5 or 2:1. This means the length is twice as long as the width.

How to Calculate Cm To Ratio?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Cm to Ratio:


  1. First, determine the length measurement in centimeters (L).
  2. Next, determine the width measurement in centimeters (W).
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = R = L / W.
  4. Finally, calculate the Cm to Ratio.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem:

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

length measurement in centimeters (L) = 50 cm

width measurement in centimeters (W) = 10 cm
