Answer 1

d. millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The kilometer is the largest of the units here. The size order of the units are

1 millimeter<1 inch<1 feet<1 kilometers.

Letters are generally very small in size so the best unit to measure the dimensions would be millimeter

The length in inch can be converted to millimeter as

1 inch = 25.4 mm

The length in feet can be converted to millimeter as

1 feet = 304.8 mm

The length in kilometer can be converted to millimeter as

1 km = 1000000 mm.
