This math topic focuses on converting powers of ten into their corresponding metric unit prefixes. It is part of an introductory learning unit on scientific notation. The topic involves identifying the commonly used metric prefixes such as milli, centi, deca, kilo, and more for different powers of ten ranging from \(10^1\) to \(10^{-3}\). The learners are required to match each expression of a power of ten with the correct metric unit name from a list of options provided for each question. This helps build understanding of the metric system and its application in scientific contexts.
