cm is centimeter, whilst m is meters. one hundred cm is centimeter, whilst m is meters. one hundred centimeters equals one meter, These are metric measurements. Ft is foot, plural feet. It is easy to convert between cm, ft and meters.
One foot is made up of 12 inches. An inch is equivalent to 2.54cm, therefore there are 30.48cm in one foot. In one meter there are 100/30.48ft or in other words there are 3.281ft in one meter. This can be used to convert between all three measurements

'cm' is centimeter meaning one hundreath of an 'm' or meter. A meter is relative to ångström (Å) = 1.0 x 10–10 meters. An ångström is the average length of 1 atom.
ft is a foot which is 1/1000 of a chain which is the std length an ox could plough in an hour
