Metric Units - Table Missing Prefix (Very Large) (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on understanding and identifying prefixes for metric units, particularly at very large scales. Students practice associating the correct prefix with its corresponding symbol and power of ten, such as tera (T), giga (G), mega (M), and kilo (k). Each problem provides a table with one missing prefix, where students must select the correct prefix from multiple choices. This covers prefixes ranging from \(10^3\) to \(10^{12}\), enhancing their grasp of metric units and powers of ten relevant to measurement.
