Metric Unit

This math topic focuses on evaluating and comparing the magnitudes of metric system prefixes, specifically those that represent extremely large values. Students are expected to discern which of two given prefixes (like 'exa', 'peta', 'zetta', 'tera', 'yotta') represents a larger quantity. This skill is part of a broader unit on conversion of measurement units, specifically dealing with very large and small quantities in the metric system, which helps build a foundational understanding of unit scaling and hierarchy.
