Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
According to the standard system of measurement 1 m is equal to 100 cm. The International System of Units defines the SI base units as the standard units of measurement. To avoid confusion, SI units were introduced. As the meter is bigger than a centimetre and as “cent” means 100 and meter is meter here. 1 metre is equal to 100 centimeters.
The correct statement would be, 100 centimeters is equal to 1 metre.
