It is defined as the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 of a second. Originally it was defined as one ten millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole at sea level.

It is equivalent to about 39.25 inches.

100 centimeters, 1000 millimeters, 0.001 of a kilometer

100 cm. or 3.28 feet or 39 3/8"
