Which SI prefix does fit the statement:  1 meter = __________  ___________________? Select all that apply.
Group of answer choices

102 centimeters

10-6 micrometers

103 millimeters

10-3 kilometers

10-9 nanometers

Let's go through the options one by one and see which prefixes correctly complete the statement:

**1 meter = __________  ___________________.**

1. **102 centimeters (100 centimeters)**:   
   - **True**: 1 meter = 100 centimeters (because 1 meter = \(10^2\) centimeters).

2. **10-6 micrometers**:  
   - **False**: \(10^{-6}\) micrometers would be 0.000001 micrometers. The correct relationship is 1 meter = \(10^6\) micrometers, so this is incorrect.

3. **103 millimeters (1000 millimeters)**:  
   - **True**: 1 meter = 1000 millimeters (because 1 meter = \(10^3\) millimeters).

4. **10-3 kilometers**:  
   - **True**: \(10^{-3}\) kilometers = 0.001 kilometers, and 1 meter = 0.001 kilometers, so this is correct.

5. **10-9 nanometers (1,000,000,000 nanometers)**:  
   - **True**: 1 meter = \(10^9\) nanometers, so this is correct.

### Correct Answers:
- \(10^2\) centimeters
- \(10^3\) millimeters
- \(10^{-3}\) kilometers
- \(10^9\) nanometers
