Step-by-Step Solution

To convert 1 millimeters to light years, we divide by 9.46e+18 because one light year equals exactly 9.46e+18 millimeters.

1 light year = 9.46e+18 millimeters

Since there are 9.46e+18 millimeters in every light year, we divide our value by this factor:

1 ÷ 9.46e+18 = 1.06e-19 light years

So 1 millimeters = 1.06e-19 light years.

Quick check: 1.06e-19 × 9.46e+18 = 1 millimeters

How to Convert Millimeters to Light Years

To convert millimeters to light years, divide the value by 9.46e+18.

The Formula

Light Years = Millimeters ÷ 9.46e+18

Key Fact

1 light year = 9.46e+18 millimeters

Tip: To convert light years back to millimeters, multiply by 9.46e+18.

Example Conversions

Example 1: 1 mm = 1.06e-19 ly
1 ÷ 9.46e+18 = 1.06e-19
Example 2: 5 mm = 5.28e-19 ly
5 ÷ 9.46e+18 = 5.28e-19
Example 3: 10 mm = 1.06e-18 ly
10 ÷ 9.46e+18 = 1.06e-18
