Base Name to Fraction (Level 1)

This topic focuses on converting metric prefixes into fractional equivalent values, which is foundational in understanding scientific notation and units of measurement. It covers commonly used metric units such as pico, nano, milli, and micro, examining their equivalents in fractional form. Each question in these problems prompts the learner to identify the correct fraction that corresponds to a given metric prefix, enhancing their understanding of the relative scales of these measurements in a practical context.
