Milli is a prefix that means one-thousandth, deci is a prefix meaning one-tenth, and kilo is a prefix meaning one thousand. A meter is 39.37 inches; therefore a millimeter is a small measurement (about 0.04 in), the decimeter is not a term used very often (3.937 in) and the kilometer is a measurement over a half mile(about 0.62 miles).
