How the formula works
Both centigram per milliliter and milligram per liter measure the same physical quantity (mass per unit volume), so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in centigram per milliliter by 10000 to get milligram per liter. To reverse the conversion, multiply a milligram per liter value by 1e-4 to get back to centigram per milliliter.
