How to convert miles to millimeters

Any physical quantity can be written as:

Q = nu , where n= numerical value and u = unit used

We know that:

1 mi = 1609344 mm

1 mm = 0.00000062137 mi

So, you can easily convert your quantity in miles to mm by simply multiply it by 1609344

Hence, general formula to convert miles to mm:

p(mm) = 1609344 × p(mi), where p is the numerical value

For example:

Convert 15 miles to mm

15 mi = 15 × 1609344 mm = 24140160 mm

About Mile (mi)

Name of unit: Mile

Abbreviation: mi

Unit system: Imperial System

Definition Mile is the unit of length used in both British Imperial (BI) and US Customary (USC) systems of measurements for measuring the larger distances .

About Millimetre (mm)

Name of unit: Millimetre

Abbreviation: mm

Unit system: metric system

Definition: Millimetre is the metric unit of length used to measure the length of very small objects or distances. In SI units, the fundamental unit of length is the metre and 'milli' is the latin word refers to the prefix of the metre which is equal to one thousandth i.e 0.001 ( 1 mm = 1/1000m ). Thus we can say that millimetre is one thousandth of a metre.

Uses of mm: Millimetre is the small unit of length. So , it is used to measure the length of very tiny objects like nib of a pen, a pencil or a needle , thickness of sheet or cloth etc . Miillimetre is also used various fields like physics, chemistry , medicines, mathematics etc for small measurements.

Countries that use CM: Millimetere is the metric unit of length, so it is used by all other countries around the world except the US, Liberia and Myanmar.
