Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer is option (c), it is not one of the principles of metric system.

Explanation:

The metric system is a system of measuring the quantities. In the metric system, there is one unit for each measurable quantity and these are length (meter), weight (gram), and capacity (liter).

We can use units derived from metric units to measure smaller or greater quantities and prefixes are used for them. For example: to measure small distance we use meter and to measure large distance we use kilometer so here 'kilo' is the prefix used for one hundredth of the base unit (meter).

Metric measurements can be converted to other forms either by multiplying or by dividing with the base unit.
