Direct link to robkingston0's post “technically, as with any ...” technically, as with any SI unit, yes there is. in physics, you occasionally come across nano meters, one nanometer = 10^-9 meters or 0.000000001 meters going bigger, you could technically have a mega meter which would be 1000 kilometers, but i have never seen this in practice and most people would misunderstand you (in a metric country) (19 votes) 12ecofsky a year agoPosted a year ago.

Direct link to Usman's post “a km is a kilometer, and ...” a km is a kilometer, and an M is a meter. There are 1,000 meters in a kilometer. In other words, one meter is 1/1,000 of a kilometer or 0.001 of a kilometer. (25 votes) Cow Fungus 5 years agoPosted 5 years ago.

Direct link to Ian Pulizzotto's post “Converting from km to m r...” Converting from km to m requires multiplying by 1,000, because there are 1,000 m in one km. Converting m to mm requires multiplying by 1,000, because there are 1,000 mm in one m. It follows from these two facts that converting from km to mm requires multiplying by 1,000*1,000=1,000,000.

Direct link to Usman's post “Okay so if y'all don't ge...” Okay so if y'all don't get this, let me give you an example. So, 1 kilogram = 1,000 grams, right? So, if the question asks you how many grams are 4 kilograms, you multiply 4 by 1,000 which is 4,000. Because if 1 kilogram = 1,000 grams, 4 must be 4,000 grams. • (16 votes) KAP a year agoPosted a year ago.

practically: smaller than milli meter: yes. larger than kilo meter: no
this table shows all the possible prefixes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_prefix100 cm is the answer
