1 cm is about the width of a finger. Since the distance between her forehead and her mouth would be about 10 fingers, I'd go with answer B, because a dm is 10 times greater than a cm.

A. 1cm = 10 mm
B. 1dm = 10cm = 100mm
C. 1m = 100cm = 10.000mm
D. 1km = 1.000m = 1.000.000cm = 10.000.000mm
The answer would be B. 1dm = 10cm.
I hope my multiplication is correct.

B) dm; 1 dm = 10cm/4 inches, which sounds about right to me.

The answer is B 1 decimeter. One centemeter is much too small, one meter is too large so you can then infer that one Kilometer is much too large.
