Step-by-step explanation:

In the metric system , meter is defined as standard the unit of length.

According to System Internationale we take meter as unit to measure any certain amount of length.

Centimeter is also an unit of length derived by multiplying hundred to the meter. According to C.G.S unit  we take centimeter as an unit of length.

So, 1 centimeter= 1/100 meter.

  72 centimeter= 72/100 meter.

               = 0.72 meter.

   1 centimeter= 1/100000 km

  72 centimeter= 72/100000 km

               =0.00072 km
