Units of various sizes are commonly formed by the use of such prefixes. The prefixes of the metric system, such as ''kilo'' and ''milli'', represent multiplication by powers of ten. In information technology it is common to use binary prefixes, which are based on powers of two. Historically, many prefixes have been used or proposed by various sources, but only a narrow set has been recognised by standards organisations.
