How to Convert Cubic Meters to Cubic Centimeters

To convert a measurement in cubic meters to a measurement in cubic centimeters, multiply the volume by the following conversion ratio: 1,000,000 cubic centimeters/cubic meter.

Since one cubic meter is equal to 1,000,000 cubic centimeters, you can use this simple formula to convert:

cubic centimeters = cubic meters × 1,000,000

The volume in cubic centimeters is equal to the volume in cubic meters multiplied by 1,000,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5 cubic meters to cubic centimeters using the formula above.
cubic centimeters = (5 m³ × 1,000,000) = 5,000,000 cm³

How Many Cubic Centimeters Are in a Cubic Meter?

There are 1,000,000 cubic centimeters in a cubic meter, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 m³ = 1,000,000 cm³

Cubic meters and cubic centimeters are both units used to measure volume. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Cubic Meter?

One cubic meter is equal to the volume of a cube with each edge measuring one meter.

The cubic meter, or cubic metre, is the SI derived unit for volume in the metric system. Cubic meters can be abbreviated as , and are also sometimes abbreviated as cu m, CBM, cbm, or MTQ. For example, 1 cubic meter can be written as 1 m³, 1 cu m, 1 CBM, 1 cbm, or 1 MTQ.

What Is a Cubic Centimeter?

The cubic centimeter is a unit that is equal to the volume of a cube with one centimeter sides. One cubic centimeter is equal to about 0.061 cubic inches.[1]

The cubic centimeter, or cubic centimetre, is a multiple of the cubic meter, which is the SI derived unit for volume. In the metric system, "centi" is the prefix for hundredths, or 10-2. Cubic centimeters can be abbreviated as cm³, and are also sometimes abbreviated as cu cm, cc, or ccm. For example, 1 cubic centimeter can be written as 1 cm³, 1 cu cm, 1 cc, or 1 ccm.
