Arrange the following in the increasing order:

(A) Micrometre

(B) Centimetre

(C) Mile

(D) Kilometre

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Option 1 -> Micrometre (10−610^{-6} m) < Centimetre (10−210^{-2} m) < Kilometre (10310^3 m) < Mile (≈1609 m) - correctly arranged from smallest to largest.

Option 2 -> Places Mile before Kilometre, but 1 mile ≈ 1.609 km, so this is incorrect.

Option 3 -> Places Centimetre before Micrometre, but 1 cm = 10,000 micrometres, so this is incorrect.

Option 4 -> Starts with Mile as the smallest unit, which is completely wrong.


Hence, Option 1: (A), (B), (D), (C) -> The correct increasing order is Micrometre (0.000001 m) → Centimetre (0.01 m) → Kilometre (1,000 m) → Mile (1,609.34 m) -> correct
