These are SI units using standard prefixes. The interpretation of common prefixes is as follows:

kilo = 1000

hecto = 100

deca = 10

deci = 0.1

centi = 0.01

milli = 0.001

Therefore, 1 centigram is 0.01 grams and 1 decagram is 10 grams.

A decagram is 1000 times larger than a centigram.

A centigram is one hundredth of a gram and is ten times larger than a milligram because centi- means one hundredth and milli- means one thousandth.

From largest to smallest here are the metric prefixes

A centigram is 10,000 times smaller than a decagram. This is because there are 10 centigrams in a decigram and 10 decigrams in a gram. Therefore, a centigram is 10,000 times smaller than a decagram.

Centi- prefix means 1/100

Milli- prefix means 1/1000

So 1 centigram is 10 times larger than a milligram, that is 1 cg = 10mg.
