Centimeters

Centimeter (symbol: cm), or centimetre (British spelling) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one hundredth of a meter, centi being the SI prefix for a factor of  1/100. The centimeter was the base unit of length in the now deprecated centimeter–gram–second (CGS) system of units. Though for many physical quantities, the centimeter remains a practical unit of length for many everyday measurements. A centimeter is approximately the width of the fingernail of an average adult person.
