Drag the correct power of ten into each blank.

1 km = (1) µm

1 Ms = (2) ns

1 cL = (3) ML

1 mg = (4) kg

Please drag and drop the selected option in the right place or type it instead
\(10^{-8}\)
\(10^{9}\)
\(10^{-6}\)
\(10^{15}\)

Correct Answer

(1) \(10^{9}\)
(2) \(10^{15}\)
(3) \(10^{-8}\)
(4) \(10^{-6}\)

Explanation

1 km = 10³ m = 10⁹ µm. 1 Ms = 10⁶ s = 10¹⁵ ns. 1 cL = 10⁻² L = 10⁻⁸ ML. 1 mg = 10⁻³ g = 10⁻⁶ kg.
