The largest metric prefixes are yotta- (Y) and zetta- (Z), representing 10^24 and 10^21, respectively. These prefixes are used to describe extremely large quantities, such as data storage capacities or distances in space.
The prefixes for deca indicate a factor of ten. For example, "deca-" represents 10, "hecto-" represents 100, and "kilo-" represents 1,000. These prefixes are commonly used in the metric system for units of measurement.
A helpful acronym to remember the prefixes in the metric system is "King Henry Died By Drinking Chocolate Milk," representing kilo, hecto, deca, base unit (gram, liter, meter), deci, centi, milli in increasing order of magnitude. This can assist in recalling the meaning and order of the prefixes.
The metric prefix deci- represents a factor of 0.1, which means one-tenth or 1/10 of the base unit. It is often used in the metric system to denote a fraction of a unit.
To convert 119 000 to engineering notation with metric prefixes, we would express it as 119 x 10^3 since 1 kilo (k) is equivalent to 10^3. Thus, in engineering notation, 119 000 would be written as 119 k.
The prefixes kilo represents 1000, deci represents 1/10, centi represents 1/100, milli represents 1/1000, micro represents 1/1,000,000, and nano represents 1/1,000,000,000. These prefixes are used to scale units of measurement in the metric system.
1000
Kilograms. The metric system prefixes are as follows: Kilo- Hecto- Deka- Base unit Deci- Centi- Milli- Kilo- is the largest and milli- is the smallest.
Every prefix in the metric system denotes a power of 10.
Since you didn't provide us with a list, here's one from least to greatest: Kilo, mega, giga, tera, peta, exa, zetta, yotta.
nano- 10-9 micro- 10-6 milli- 10-3 centi- 10-2 deci- 10-1 100 deca- 101 hecto- 102 kilo- 103
The metric prefix for billionth is nano- (symbol: n), representing 10^(-9).
mili, deci, centi, hecto, kilo, deka
Officially approved by the SI, no. Actually if you want such a large number, you can just as well use the base unit, and scientific notation. For example, instead of "3.2 Petahertz", you might just as well talk about 3.2 x 1015 hertz.
The prefixes for deca indicate a factor of ten. For example, "deca-" represents 10, "hecto-" represents 100, and "kilo-" represents 1,000. These prefixes are commonly used in the metric system for units of measurement.
For measuring computer storage (memory), both gigabyte and terabyte are larger. See related link for more prefixes. Note that there has been some confusion with using the 'metric' prefixes with memory. Originally, a kilobyte was 1024 bytes (not 1000), and a megabyte was (1024 x 1024 = 1048,576 bytes)
