How the formula works
Both gram per liter and hectogram per milliliter measure the same physical quantity (mass per unit volume), so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in gram per liter by 1e-5 to get hectogram per milliliter. To reverse the conversion, multiply a hectogram per milliliter value by 100000 to get back to gram per liter.
