Its called "onehundred meters"
There is no special word for it.
1000 (onethousand) meters, however, are called one kilometer.
It would just be called 100 meters, if it was 1000 meters than it would be a kilometer.
There is a word for 100 meters, hectometer or hm, but it is not in common usage.
Hectometer
metric measurement is the system based on multiplies of 10. ie. there are 10 millimetres in a centimetre, 100 centimetres in a meter, 1000 metres in a kilometre. Similarly for other measurements such as the Litre, or the kilogram.
.655 meters metric is a base ten system which means in the measurement of units it always changes by a factor of ten. but centimeters to meters is a change of 100 because there is something called decimeters between centimeters and meters.
Not quite. Larger or smaller units are created by adding prefixes for different powers of 10 - not only 100.
The metric system is not based on the multiples of 100. It is based on the multiples of ten.
The metric system is based on units of 10, for example; 100 centimeters = 1 meter
"hecto-" is the prefix, as in 100 metres is a hectometre. ■

One kilometre is equal to 1000 metres. Metric units between a metre and a kilometre are a decametre (10 metres) and a hectometre (100 metres).
.655 meters metric is a base ten system which means in the measurement of units it always changes by a factor of ten. but centimeters to meters is a change of 100 because there is something called decimeters between centimeters and meters.
The metric unit of length equal to 100 metres is a hectometre.
Not quite. Larger or smaller units are created by adding prefixes for different powers of 10 - not only 100.
9 metres equals 900 cms metric system works in 10s 100s or 1000s here is a rough overview 10 mm equals 1 centimetre 100 centimetre equals 1 metre also 1000 millimetres equals 1 metre 1000 metres equals a kilometre the metric system also works on volume as well 1 cubic metre equals 1000 litres 10 cms cubed is 1 litre
The metric unit abbreviation hm stands for hectometre. A hectometre is equal to 100 metres.
The metric system is not based on the multiples of 100. It is based on the multiples of ten.
for this answer: in the metric system what is the prefix for 1/100?ANSWER: centi-AtL 2009
The metric system is designed to deal in powers of ten, so it has a prefix for 100, which is hecto, but not for 110.
The metric system is based on units of 10, for example; 100 centimeters = 1 meter
