I believe by using the Metric prefixes, 456. Cl is equal to 4560. Ml.
The number of atoms of that element. The prefixes are greek in origin so it helps if you studied classical greek - like i did- but just in case you didn't mono- one di - two tri- three tetra - four penta - five hexa - six hepta - seven octa - eight nona- nine deca - ten eicosa- 20
Greek prefixes are used in the naming of covalent compounds to indicate the number of atoms of each element present in the compound. These prefixes help in specifying the exact ratio of elements in the compound. In ionic compounds, Greek prefixes are not used because the compounds consist of ions with fixed ratios, so the prefixes are not needed.
The prefixes for the covalent compound N2O5 are di- (two nitrogen atoms) and penta- (five oxygen atoms).
No, formulas of ionically bonded compounds can be figured out without prefixes and understanding of how many electrons are gained/lost. In covalent bonds, prefixes are needed and without them the formulas and quantities couldn't be determined.

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.
Every prefix in the metric system denotes a power of 10.
The metric prefix for billionth is nano- (symbol: n), representing 10^(-9).
mili, deci, centi, hecto, kilo, deka
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.
In the metric systems, unlike other systems, there is only one unit for each measurement; e.g the only unit for length is the metre. For lengths much longer, or shorter, lengths we use prefixes to indicate the fraction or multiple of the metre. For short lengths the fractions are thousandths, millionths, billionths; for which the prefixes are milli-, micro-, and nano-. For longer lengths, the multiples are thousands, millions, and billions; for which the prefixes are kilo-, mega-, and giga-. The prefixes indicate the fraction,or the multiple of the base unit.
Hex- means six and oct= means eight.
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.
