Units of Length:
The basic unit of length measurements in metric units is a metre (m).
1 millimetre (mm) = \( \frac{1}{1000\:m} \scriptsize = 10^{-3}\:m\)
1 centimetre (cm) = \( \frac{1}{100\:m}\scriptsize = 10^{-2}\:m\)
1 decimetre (dm) = \( \frac{1}{10\:m}\scriptsize = 10^{-1}\:m\)
1 decametre (Dm) = 10 m = 101 m
1 hectometre (Hm) = 100 m = 102 m
1 kilometre (Km) = 1,000 m = 103 m
