$120*cm=1.20*m$

$1*cm$ $=$ $1xx10^-2*m$

Thus $120*cm=120xx1xx10^-2*m$ $=$ $1.20*m$ .

$"Centi"$ , $"micro"$ , $"milli"$ , and $"kilo"$ are simply commonly used mulitpliers to save on the number of $0000"'s"$ we have to write.

$"Micro " (mu)$ means $xx10^-6$ .

$"Milli (m)"$ means $xx10^-3$ .

$"Kilo (k)"$ means $xx10^3$ .

$"Mega (m)"$ means $xx10^6$ .

$"Deci"$ means $xx10^-1$ .
