The <strong>metric system<\/strong> is widely used for its simplicity, as it is based on powers of 10. In this system:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1 kilometre = 1,000 metres<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1 metre = 100 centimetres<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1 centimetre = 10 millimetres<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This allows us to easily scale units up or down by multiplying or dividing by 10, 100, or 1,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this example, converting 7 metres to centimetres helps us compare directly with 700 cm without guessing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Common mistake to avoid:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some students mistakenly believe that 700 is a <strong>larger number<\/strong> than 7, so 700 cm must be more than 7 metres. However, they forget to consider <strong>units<\/strong>. Comparing values without converting to the same unit leads to incorrect conclusions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of it this way: Saying 7 metres is less than 700 centimetres is like saying 7 dollars is less than 700 cents \u2014 but <strong>700 cents is also 7 dollars<\/strong>, so they are <strong>equal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final answer:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2705 <strong>(C) Both are equal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner5-41.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-224186\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which is more : 7 metre OR 700 cm?(A) 700 cm (B) 7 m(C) Both are equal The Correct Answer and Explanation is: The correct answer is: (C) Both are equal Explanation: To compare 7 metres and 700 centimetres, we must convert both measurements into the same unit.
