Hebdometre
Hebdo- (symbol H) is an obsolete decimal metric prefix equal to 107. It is derived from the Greek ''hebdοmos'' ( el, ἕβδομος) meaning ''seventh''. The definition of one ''hebdomometre'' or ''hebdometre'' as was originally proposed by Rudolf Clausius for use in an absolute electrodynamic system of units named the quadrant–eleventh-gram–second system (QES system), also known as the hebdometre–undecimogramme–second system (HUS system) in the 1880s. It was based on the meridional definition of the metre which established one ten-millionth of a quadrant, a quarter of an astronomical meridian or the distance from the north pole to the equator, as a metre.

10,000,000
10,000,000 (ten million) is the natural number following 9,999,999 and preceding 10,000,001. In scientific notation, it is written as 107. In South Asia except for Sri Lanka, it is known as the crore. In Cyrillic numerals, it is known as the vran (''вран'' — raven).

Decimal Prefix
A metric prefix is a unit prefix that precedes a basic unit of measure to indicate a multiple or submultiple of the unit. All metric prefixes used today are decadic. Each prefix has a unique symbol that is prepended to any unit symbol. The prefix ''kilo-'', for example, may be added to ''gram'' to indicate ''multiplication'' by one thousand: one kilogram is equal to one thousand grams. The prefix ''milli-'', likewise, may be added to ''metre'' to indicate ''division'' by one thousand; one millimetre is equal to one thousandth of a metre. Decimal multiplicative prefixes have been a feature of all forms of the metric system, with six of these dating back to the system's introduction in the 1790s. Metric prefixes have also been used with some non-metric units. The SI prefixes are metric prefixes that were standardised for use in the International System of Units (SI) by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) in resolutions dating from 1960 to 2022. Since 2009, the ...

Undécimogramme
The gram (originally gramme; SI unit symbol g) is a unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one one thousandth of a kilogram. Originally defined as of 1795 as "the absolute weight of a volume of pure water equal to the cube of the hundredth part of a metre melting ice", the defining temperature (~0 °C) was later changed to 4 °C, the temperature of maximum density of water. However, by the late 19th century, there was an effort to make the Base unit (measurement), base unit the kilogram and the gram a derived unit. In 1960, the new International System of Units defined a ''gram'' as one one-thousandth of a kilogram (i.e., one gram is Scientific notation, 1×10−3 kg). The kilogram, as of 2019, is defined by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures from the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant (), which is kg⋅m2⋅s−1.

Myria-
Myria- (symbol my) is a now obsolete decimal metric prefix denoting a factor of 104 (ten thousand). It originates from the Greek μύριοι (''mýrioi'') (myriad). The prefix was part of the original metric system adopted by France in 1795, but was not adopted when the SI prefixes were internationally adopted by the 11th CGPM conference in 1960. In 1685 John Wallis proposed the usage of myrio. Also, in 19th century English it was sometimes spelled myrio, in line with a puristic opinion by Thomas Young. The ''myriametre'' (10 km) is occasionally encountered in 19th-century train tariffs, or in some classifications of wavelengths as the adjective '' myriametric''. The French ''mesures usuelles'' (1812-1839) did not include any units of length greater than the ''toise'', but the ''myriametre'' remained in use throughout this period. (Website based on ''Alte Meß- und Währungssysteme aus dem deutschen Sprachgebiet'', .) In Sweden and Norway, the ''myriametre'' is stil ...

Kilo-
Kilo is a decimal unit prefix in the metric system denoting multiplication by one thousand (103). It is used in the International System of Units, where it has the symbol k, in lowercase. The prefix ''kilo'' is derived from the Greek word (), meaning "thousand". In 19th century English it was sometimes spelled chilio, in line with a puristic opinion by Thomas Young. As an opponent of suggestions to introduce the metric system in Britain, he qualified the nomenclature adopted in France as barbarous. Examples * one kilogram (kg) is 1000 grams * one kilometre (km) is 1000 metres * one kilojoule (kJ) is 1000 joules * one kilolitre (kL) is 1000 litres * one kilobaud (kBd) is 1000 baud * one kilohertz (kHz) is 1000 hertz * one kilobit (kb) is 1000 bits * one kilobyte (kB) is 1000 bytes * one kiloohm is (kΩ) is 1000 ohms * one kilosecond (ks) is 1000 seconds *one kilotonne (kt) is 1000 tonnes By extension, currencies are also sometimes preceded by the prefix kilo-: * one kil ...

Hekto-
''Hecto'' (symbol: h) is a decimal unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one hundred. It was adopted as a multiplier in 1795, and comes from the Greek , meaning "hundred". In 19th century English it was sometimes spelled "hecato", in line with a puristic opinion by Thomas Young. Its unit symbol as an SI prefix in the International System of Units (SI) is the lower case letter h. The prefix is rarely used in general, but has certain specific applications: * hectopascal (hPa), in meteorology, for atmospheric pressure, the modern equivalent of the traditional millibar. * hectolitre (hl or hL), in agriculture, for liquids (notably wine and milk) and bulk commodities (e.g., grain). * hectogram (hg), in agronomy, for quantities of animal feed (hectogram/animal) and for measures of agricultural productivity (hectogram/hectare); also used in Italy abbreviated as , and in Canada, New Zealand and Sweden simply as 100 g, for retail sale of cold cuts and meat. * hectome ...

''Centi'' (symbol c) is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one hundredth. Proposed in 1793, and adopted in 1795, the prefix comes from the Latin , meaning "hundred" (cf. century, cent, percent, centennial). Since 1960, the prefix is part of the International System of Units (SI). It is mainly used in combination with the unit ''metre'' to form ''centimetre'', a common unit of length. ;Example: * A honey bee is about 1.3 centimetres long. See also *Percent In mathematics, a percentage (from la, per centum, "by a hundred") is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

Deci-
''Deci'' (symbol d) is a decimal unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one tenth. Proposed in 1793, and adopted in 1795, the prefix comes from the Latin , meaning "tenth". Since 1960, the prefix is part of the International System of Units (SI). A frequent use of the prefix is in the unit deciliter (dl), common in food recipes; many European homes have a deciliter measure for flour, water, etc. A common measure in engineering is the unit decibel for measuring ratios of power and root-power quantities, such as sound level and electrical amplification. ;Example: *The diameter of a compact disc The compact disc (CD) is a Digital media, digital optical disc data storage format that was co-developed by Philips and Sony to store and play digital audio recordings.

University Of North Carolina At Chapel Hill
A university () is an institution of higher (or tertiary) education and research which awards academic degrees in several academic disciplines. Universities typically offer both undergraduate and postgraduate programs. In the United States, the designation is reserved for colleges that have a graduate school. The word ''university'' is derived from the Latin ''universitas magistrorum et scholarium'', which roughly means "community of teachers and scholars". The first universities were created in Europe by Catholic Church monks. The University of Bologna (''Università di Bologna''), founded in 1088, is the first university in the sense of: *Being a high degree-awarding institute. *Having independence from the ecclesiastic schools, although conducted by both clergy and non-clergy. *Using the word ''universitas'' (which was coined at its foundation). *Issuing secular and non-secular degrees: grammar, rhetoric, logic, theology, canon law, notarial law.Hunt Janin: "The unive ...
