No. One hundredth is a "centi-".
A "milli-" is one thousandth.
milli- represents thousandths so 2 of them is one-five-hundredth.
Centimetre gets its name from the Latin word for 100, being one-hundredth of a metre. Cf "milli", one thousandth and "deci", one-tenth.
There are 10 millimeters (mm) in a centimeter (cm). 'Centi' prefix means one one-hundredth, while 'milli' prefix means one one-thousandth. Therefore, a centimeter is one one-hundredth of a meter while a millimeter is one one-thousandth of one.
Since milli- means one thousandth, centi- means one hundredth and deci- means one tenth, a decimetre is exactly one tenth of a metre. (It is also ten centimetres and also one hundred millimetres.)
one hundredth.
Centi- = one hundredth Milli- = one thousandth Micro- = one millionth
A millimetere os one tenth of a centimetre so 160mm is 16cm. the reason it is milli-metre is because 'milli' is one millionth so it is one millionth of a metre thus forming millimetre a centimetre is one one hundredth of a metre 'centi' being the word of a hundredth
milli- represents thousandths so 2 of them is one-five-hundredth.
