Units - Metric Core - Unit Name to Power of Ten (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on understanding the relationship between metric unit prefixes and their equivalent powers of ten, an essential concept linked to scientific notation. The questions are structured to enhance familiarity with translating commonly used metric prefixes like kilo, hecto, deca, deci, centi, and milli into their corresponding powers of ten for different physical quantities such as meters, amps, seconds, and bytes. Each question requires identifying the correct exponential form that represents a specific unit prefix, reinforcing the foundational aspects of metric conversions and power notation.
