The powers of 1000 are expressed as 1000 raised to various exponents. For example, (1000^1) equals 1000, (1000^2) equals 1,000,000 (one million), and (1000^3) equals 1,000,000,000 (one billion). Generally, (1000^n) can be simplified to (10^{3n}), since 1000 is (10^3). Thus, the powers of 1000 increase rapidly as the exponent increases.
It was found convenient to have prefixes for different powers of 10 - and especially powers of 1000. "Kilo" was chosen for 1000. It is derived from a Greek word meaning 1000.
10, 100, 1000, 10000, ... are the positive powers. 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, ... are negative powers.
There is no special prefix for that factor. There are SI prefixes for powers of 10 (10, 100, 1000, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001), and especially for powers of 1000 (1000, a million, a billion, 1/1000, etc.)

To find all powers of 3 within the range of 3 through 1000, we need to determine the highest power of 3 that is less than or equal to 1000. The highest power of 3 less than 1000 is 729, which is 3^6. Therefore, the powers of 3 within the range of 3 through 1000 are 3^1, 3^2, 3^3, 3^4, 3^5, and 3^6.
10 to the 3rd power
THREE because there are three zeros in 1000. Power or 10's dude. Powers of 10.
It is the scientific name for 1039. The -illion names are given to powers of 1000: subtract 1 from the power of 1000 to get the prefix. For example, a quadrillion is one thousand to the 4th power, times 1000 - or 1015.
Find the powers of 2. 8 in binary would be 1000
Instead of or powers of 10, the Babylobians used powers of 60. So Babylonian 10 is decimal 60, and Babylonian 100 is decimal 3600. Decimal 1000 is 16x60 +40 =Babylonian (16)(40)
You multiply or divide by powers of ten for small changes in the order of magnitude, or powers of 1000 for larger changes.
