1/10th of a meter... Like a centimeter is 100th and a millimeter is 1/1000th
A millimeter is 1/1000 of a meter.
A kilometer is one thousand TIMES a meter (1 meter X 103) and a megameter is one million TIMES a meter (1 meter X 106), while a millimeter is one thousANDTH of a meter (1 meter X 10-3) and a micrometer is one millionTH of a meter (1 meter X 10-6).The prefix (e.g. kilo) attached to the unit (e.g. meter) defines the multiplier, as in kilo means "1000 times" andmega means "million times," while milli means "1/1000 of" and micromeans " one millionth of." So, for example,kilometer can broken down into kilo and meter, suggesting 1000 times a meter, which is equal to 1000 meters.The prefix either breaks a unit (in this case meters) into parts of the unit or multiplies of the unit, depending on the SIGN (+ or -) of the exponent attached to the prefix (negative exponents refer to fractions of the unit [smaller] while positive exponents refer to multiples of the unit [bigger]).
One square meter is a unit of area, not length, so it does not directly convert to meters. However, if you are looking for the length of one side of a square that has an area of one square meter, you would need to calculate the square root of one square meter, which is approximately 1.414 meters.
