How the formula works
Both centigram per liter and milligram per milliliter measure the same physical quantity (mass per unit volume), so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in centigram per liter by 0.01 to get milligram per milliliter. To reverse the conversion, multiply a milligram per milliliter value by 100 to get back to centigram per liter.
