Conversion Definitions

The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between hectometers and nanometers.

What is a hectometer (hm)?

A hectometer is a unit of Length or Distance in the Metric System. The symbol for hectometer is hm. There are 0.00000000001 hectometers in a nanometer. The International spelling for this unit is hectometre.

What is a nanometer (nm)?

A nanometer is a unit of Length or Distance in the Metric System. The symbol for nanometer is nm. There are 100,000,000,000 nanometers in a hectometer. The International spelling for this unit is nanometre.

Conversion Formula

Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.

The formula to convert from hm to nm is:

nm = hm x 100,000,000,000

Conversion Example

Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from hectometers to nanometers (hm to nm).

Hectometer to Nanometer Conversion Example

Task: Convert 53 hectometers to nanometers (show work)

Formula:
hm x 100,000,000,000 = nm

Calculations:
53 hm x 100,000,000,000 = 5,300,000,000,000 nm

Result:
53 hm is equal to 5,300,000,000,000 nm
