Need to convert 100 Hectopascals to Megapascals? Use our pressure converter to instantly get the answer.
100 Hectopascals is equal to 0.01 Megapascals.
How to Convert 100 Hectopascals to Megapascals
To convert, start with the base conversion factor:
1 Hectopascal = 0.0001 Megapascals
Now, we can multiply both sides by 100 to find the result for your value:
(1 × 100) hPa = (0.0001 × 100) MPa
100 hPa = 0.010000 MPa
100 hPa = 0.010000 MPa
Conversion Factors
1 Hectopascal = 0.0001 Megapascals
1 Megapascal = 10,000 Hectopascals
Formula:
Megapascals = Hectopascals × 0.0001
Calculation:
100 hPa × 0.0001 = 0.010000 MPa
