A unit prefix is a specifier or mnemonic that is prepended to units of measurement to indicate multiples or fractions of the units. 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.
