Convert centiinch to astronomical unit
Please provide values below to convert centiinch [cin] to astronomical unit [AU, UA], or Convert astronomical unit to centiinch.
1 cin = 1.6979e-15 AU, UA. To convert centiinch to astronomical unit, multiply the value by 1.6979e-15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 AU, UA = 5.8897e+14 cin). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cin = 1.6979e-15 AU, UA
- 1 AU, UA = 5.8897e+14 cin
- 10 cin = 1.6979e-14 AU, UA
- 100 cin = 1.6979e-13 AU, UA
How to Convert Centiinch to Astronomical Unit

Centiinch
A centiinch is a unit of length equal to one-hundredth of an inch.
History/Origin
The centiinch is not a standard unit of measurement but is a logical subdivision of the inch.
Current Use
The centiinch is rarely used.
Astronomical Unit
The astronomical unit is a unit of length, now defined as exactly 149,597,870,700 meters. It is approximately the average distance between the Earth and the Sun.
History/Origin
Historically, the astronomical unit was the mean Earth-Sun distance. In 2012, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) redefined it as a fixed constant.
Current Use
The astronomical unit is used primarily for measuring distances within the Solar System or around other stars.
