Yes. The prefixes 'deci-' and 'centi-' refer to given amounts of any unit of measure. In the case of 'deci-', it's one-tenth. In the case of 'centi-', it's one-hundredth. So the prefix 'deci-' refers to a larger amount under consideration than does the prefix 'centi-'.
Yes.
The deci- prefix means one tenth (1/10 = 0.1) The centi- prefix means one hundredth (1/100 = 0.01) Therefore for the same unit, a deci- one is larger than a centi- one. eg 1 decimetre is larger than 1 centimetre since 1 dm = 0.1m > 0.01m = 1 cm.
Deci is Latin for "ten", Centi is Latin for "hundred"
Yes, the order goes: kilo hecto deca Unit - mLg deci centi milli
Deci- means tenth of Centi means hundredth of so you know from fractions a tenth is larger than a hundredth, so a decimeter is larger.
Of the three prefices immediately next to the measurement unit, those that end in i (milli, centi and deci) are smaller than the unit. The ones that are larger (deka, hecto, kilo) do not end in i.
decagrams. from small to big: milli centi unit deci deca kilo
Deci means one tenth of a mumber. EX. decilitre- It means 1/10 of a litre. Deci is a term like 'Centi. Deci= 1/10 ,Centi= 1/100

The prefix that represents hundredths in the metric system is "centi-."
Yes a centimeter is larger than decimeters. One decimeter is 10 centimeters. One centimeter is .1 decimeter. A centimeter and a decimeter are both a unit used to measure. A centimeter is often located one a ruler.
