Question

what does the prefix \centi-\ mean? choose one option a $\frac{1}{10}$ b $\frac{1}{100}$ c 10 d 100

Explanation:

In the metric system, the prefix "centi - " is a unit prefix that denotes a factor of $\frac{1}{100}$. For example, a centimeter is $\frac{1}{100}$ of a meter. Option A is for the prefix "deci - " (which means $\frac{1}{10}$), option C is for "deca - " (meaning 10), and option D is for "hecto - " (meaning 100). So the correct option is B.

Answer:

B. $\frac{1}{100}$
