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

This math topic focuses on converting metric unit prefixes into their equivalent powers of ten. Each problem presents a specific metric unit, such as megameters, nanograms, or petaseconds, and asks to identify the correct power of ten representation. The objective is to strengthen understanding of the scientific notation and metric prefixes, enhancing skills in expressing large and small quantities in a standardized mathematical form. This set of problems is an introductory level exercise included in a broader unit on scientific notation.
