Answer:

There are 1000 millimeters in a meter.

Starting from lower scale that is, centimeter, decimeter and then meter

1 cm = 10 mm

1 dm = 10 cm

And 1 meter = 10 dm

So, when you go up to mm from meter, we will do
10^(3) to get the relation between meter and mm.

Hence, 1 meter =
10*10*10=1000 millimeters.
