A metre is a length equivalent to about 39.37 inches.

They are used in a decimal system, so it is common for its multiples and sub-multiples to be in tens, hundreds, thousands , etc; and there are a formal set of names for these prefixes and suffixes.

These are obtained by international agreement, and the world body is the Bureau of Weights and Measures, BIPM which is located in Paris, France.
