Correct Answer: a, d, b, c


Solution : Given:
a. Centi b. Deca c. Kilo d. Deci

The arrangement of all the unit prefixes in increasing order is as follows –
Here all the words are unit prefixes of International Systems of Units (SI). According to the quantities, Centi comes first as Centi denote 10 -2 then Deci as Deci denote 10 -1 , after that Deca denote 10 and at last Kilo denote 1000.
So, Centi→Deci→Deca→Kilo

The order is a, d, b, c. Hence, the third option is correct.
