Question

How many centimeters are there in 2 kilometers?

Answer 1

There are `200,000` centimeters in `2` kilometers.

Explanation:

Kilo in kilometer stands for `1000`,

hence `1` kilometer means `1000` meters

and `2` kilometers means `2xx1000=2000` meters

Similarly centi stands one hundredth and one centimeter is one-hundredth of a meter i.e. each meter has `100` centimeter

Therefore `2000` meters are `2000xx100=200,000` centimeters

Hence, there are `200,000` centimeters in `2` kilometers.
