Solution

Multiples are factors used to create larger forms. Submultiples are factors used to create smaller forms of SI units.
$M e t r e$ is used to measure length.
Multiples of meters are $k i l o m e t r e s (k m), m e g a m e t r e s (M m),$ etc.
Submultiples of meters are $c e n t i m e t r e s (c m), m i l l i m e t r e s (m m)$ , etc.
$1 m e t r e = 100 c e n t i m e t r e = 1000 m i l l i m e t r e .$
$1 k i l o m e t r e = 1000 m e t r e = 100000 c e n t i m e t r e = 1000000 m i l l i m e t r e .$
