🔍 Key Concepts

• Metric prefixes and their meaning (kilo, mega, giga, etc.) • The relationship between metric prefixes and powers of ten • Common real-world examples: megawatt (MW), megabyte (MB)

💭 Think About

• Compare what "kilo" means numerically and use that pattern to think about what "mega" should mean • Think about whether "mega" usually represents a larger or smaller quantity than the base unit • Use an example: if 1 watt is the base, about how many watts is 1 megawatt?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you know that metric prefixes represent powers of 10, not division • Confirm whether "mega" corresponds to 10^3, 10^5, or 10^6 • Check if any option suggests dividing instead of multiplying and see if that matches how "mega" is used in science and engineering
