Best Answer

From Latin, 'centi' means '100' ( One Hundred)

So 'centimetre is one hundredth of a metre.

On the Metric Linear Scale.

10 mm = 1 cm

100 cm = 1 m

1000 m = 1 km.

Notice it goes up in multiples of an 'hundred;,

The word 'centimetre' from its Latin root means ' one hundredth of a measure'.
