Question

Give multiples and sub multiples of kilometres ​

Answer 1

So to cover a larger distance we use km(kilometre) , hm (hectometre) , and dac(decametre). These are called the multiples of Metre. When the distance is smaller , we use Dm (decimetre , cm(centimetre) and mm (millimetre) . These are called the submultiples of Metre.

Answer 2

Answer:

The multiples and sub-multiples are the two units of measurements.

Multiples can be defined as the units of measurements that actually are bigger than the meter whereas the sub-multiples can be defined as the units of measurements that are smaller than meter.

The examples of multiples are decameter, and kilometer whereas, the sub-multiples are decimeters, millimeters and centimeters.
