Cubic Centimeter (cm³) to Cubic Millimeter (mm³) Conversion

Enter cubic centimeter value

Conversion Formula

1 cubic centimeter (cm³) = 1000 cubic millimeters (mm³)

Conversion Principle

Cubic centimeter (cm³) and cubic millimeter (mm³) are both volume units. The conversion is based on length unit relationships:

  • 1 centimeter (cm) = 10 millimeters (mm)
  • Therefore, 1 cubic centimeter = 10³ cubic millimeters = 1000 cubic millimeters

Common Conversion Values

Cubic Centimeter (cm³)Cubic Millimeter (mm³)Real-world Reference
11000Standard dice volume
0.5500Small pill volume
22000Two dice volume
55000One teaspoon of liquid volume
1010000One tablespoon of liquid volume
