Best Answer

A "meterstick" is a measuring device (like a ruler or yardstick) and is usually exactly one meter in length*.

In the metric SI system of measurement 1 meter = 100 centimeters.

A centimeter is exactly 1/100 of a meter.

*Meter sticks, like some rulers, can be longer than an actual meter, about 39.5 inches long, so measurements should only be made on the scaled edge.
