Let's convert 1000 cm to meters.
Explanation:
The base unit to calculate the length in the SI system is 1 meter. It is denoted as m.
Mathematically, 'centi ' means 1/100 of a unit.
1 meter = 100 centimeters
1 centimeter = 1/100 of a meter
So, 1 cm = 1/100 m
⇒ 1000 cm = 1000 × (1/100) m = 10 m
Hence, 1000 cm is equivalent to 10 meters.
