Y'all check your math. 25.4 mm does indeed equal 1 inch. 2.54 cm does indeed equal 1 inch.
But going the other way -- which you both were: 10 mm = 1 cm = .394 inch Jim was right with the large numbers (1 meter), but unfortunately changed more than the decimal point when he went to smaller numbers.

Since I am an old mathematics teacher, I couldn't resist throwing in the following: 10mm=1cm=2.54" 100cm=1meter=39.4" 1000mm=1meter=39.4" Divide the number of millimeters by 25.4 to convert to inches. Divide the number of centimeters by 2.54 to convert to inches. Jim McFerran
