Lumen per square meter to lumen per square centimeter Conversion
1 lumen per square meter (lm/m²) is equal to 0.0001 lumen per square centimeter (lm/cm²).
1 lm/m² = 0.0001 lm/cm²
or
1 lm/cm² = 10000 lm/m²
Formula
To convert a illuminance from lumen per square meter (lm/m²) to lumen per square centimeter (lm/cm²), divide the illuminance in lumen per square meter by 10000
i(lm/cm²) = i(lm/m²) / 10000
Examples:
Convert 500 lumen per square meter to lumen per square centimeter:
i(lm/cm²) = 500lm/m² / 10000 = 0.05 lm/cm²
