How do you convert 700 centimeters into meters?

Hint:
Find which unit is small or large between centimeter and meter. Then, find the relation or the way to convert centimeter into meter.

Complete step by step solution:
Centimeters and meters both are the unit of length. The meter is the base unit of length in the international system of units which is known as SI system. So, the meter can be defined as the length of path travelled by the light in the vacuum in \[\dfrac{1}{{299792458}}\] of a second. When the 1000 meters combine, they form the new unit which is termed as kilo – meters.
 The centimeter is the unit of length in the metric system which is equal to one – hundredth of the meter. The centimeter was the base unit of length in the now deprecated centimeter – gram – second (CGS) system of units. When 100 centimeters combine, they form meters.
So, the relation between meter and centimeter can be made as –
$100cm = 1m$
According to the question, we have to convert 700 centimeters into meters.
So, now, we know that –
$100cm = 1m \cdots \left( 1 \right)$
Therefore, we can conclude that centimeter is the smallest unit of meter.
So, multiplying the 7 in both sides of equation (1), we get –
$700cm = 7m$
Therefore, from the above equation we got our answer which is 7m.

Hence, the 700 centimeter is equal to 7 meters.

Note:
During the conversion of units, if the smaller unit is converted to larger unit then we should do the multiplication on the other hand, when the larger unit is to be converted to smaller unit then the division is done.
