Metric Multiples and Submultiples

Metric Multiples and Submultiples

The multiples and submultiples of the base and other units are formed by applying established prefixes, which are the same whichever unit is used. Examples are: miligram (mg), milimetre (mm), kilowatt (kW). Only one multiplying prefix is applied at one time to a given unit. Thus one thousandth of a milligram is not referred to as a millimilligram but as a microgram (µg). There are a few cases where, in attaching a prefix to the name of a unit, a  contraction of the prefix name is made for convent ence in pronunciation; for example megohm, microhm and hectare.
Unit names take a plural 's' when associated with numbers greater than 1, eB 1.5 metres; the names hertz, lux and siemens are, however, the same in the plural. Symbols are not altered in the plural form, eB 1.5m. 

The names and values of prefixes in use are given below; also indicated are the equivalent powers to base 10 of the multiplying factors which canbe used to relate any multiple orsubmultiple to the main unit; for example I mm = 10 -3 m and I MN = 106 N. The general use of the prefixes representing 10 raised to a power which is multiple of±3 is  recommended in Sl for example millimetre( 1 0-3m),metre(m) and kilometre ( 103 m). Other prefixes, notably centi, deci, deka and hecto can be used where others are inconvenient. Myria, as a prefix symbol, is not an Sl multiple, but is included for reference.
