First of all let us know of all the Unit's value:
Hecto = 10^2,
Centi = 10^-2,
Deca = 10^1,
Kilo = 10^3,
Deci = 10^-1,
(Milli = 10^-3)No need
Now make series in ascending order. 2 5 3 1 4

I am not getting it. Is there any easy way to solve this?

Kilo (gram) = 1000 grams.
Hecto (gram) = 100 grams.
Deca (gram) = 10 grams.
(gram) = 1 gram.
Centi (gram) = 0.1 gram.
Milli (gram) = 0.01gram.

1 Kilo meter = 10^3 meter,
1 Hecto meter = 10^2 meter,
1 Deca meter = 10^1 meter,
1 Deci meter = 10^-1 meter,
1 Centi meter = 10^-2 meter,
1 Milli meter = 10^-3 meter.

I'm still getting confusion. please clarify me.

Suvarna said:   9 years ago
Hai @Ajit, i would like to clarify your doubt.

For Example, take the conversion table of meter.

Then,
1 Milimeter = 10 Centimeters 10,00,000 Kilometers.
1 Centimeter = 10 Decimeter.
1 Decimeter = 10 Meter.
1 Meter = 10 Decameter.
1 Decameter = 10 Hectometer.
1 Hectometer = 10 Kilometer.

So, From Mili to Kilo i.e. in Increasing Order.
It will be option 'c'.
2, 5, 3, 1, 4.

1. Centi 2. Deci 3. Deca 4. Hecto 5. Kilo.
