Prefixes and Powers of 10 · Matching

Match each prefix to its symbol, its power of 10 and the number it stands for.

Drag cards onto each prefix (or tap a card, then a box). A prefix in front of a unit multiplies it by a power of 10: a kilometre is 103 = 1000 metres, a millimetre is 10−3 = 0.001 metres. Careful with the symbols: capital M is mega, small m is milli.
