Definitely deka…that question was so first year…I learned that in the 1st grading of my first yr. in high school…

deka is equivalent to times 10 while centi means divide by 100..

Deka means to multiply the unit by 10, centi means to divide the unit by 100, so deka is 1000 times greater than centi.
