There is none but sometimes you may find "myriad".
The SI system discourages all prefixes that are not thousand multipliers or dividers. However certain prefixes are so historically entrenched that they will not vanish soon. Some examples of 'unsupported' prefixes are: centimeter (hundredth) decimeter (tenth) decathelon (ten) hectoliter (hundred)

Give three advantages of the metric system over the English system of measurement?
One advantage is that it is based on 10 making it easy to move the decimal place over and when rounding. Another advantage is the that the rest of the world uses it so that we can all communicate in the language of the metric system. And lastly it has 3 units and prefixes so you just add the prefix necessary for the measurement you are looking at. The prefixes are kilo, hecto, deka, base units,deci,centi, and milli.
What metric system does Mexico use?
i think so because the united states is the only place that doesnt use the metric system alot
When did Germany adopt the metric system?
The North German Confederation adopted the metric system in 1868 and the remaining states in 1875 (after unification). In some of the German states the metric and pre-metric systems were both in use before 1868 - and after 1875. I have an old German ruler which is metric on one edge and give Rhenish inches on the other edge.
Where can you find a place that uses the metric system?
The metric system is used everywhere.

Who discovered the metric system and when?
The metric system was not discovered, it was invented. It kicked off in 1799, after the French revolution, when the earlier system fell into disuse. A new system, based on decimal multiples and based on the measurement units of mass (kilogram) and length (metre) was put in place.
The metric system of measurement is based on powers of what?
The metric system is based on powers of 10. This means that each unit of measurement is a multiple or fraction of 10 from the base unit. This allows for easy conversion between units by simply moving the decimal place.
Why the metric system called a decimal system of measurement?
A decimal number is a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. Measurement units in the metric system are related to one another by multiples of powers of ten (or 1000).
Why is important to use the metric system when conducting scientific investigations?
The metric system is in place as a standard unit of measurement. It's important to use standardized units so that scientists elsewhere, anywhere, can repeat the investigations to confirm the work.
