Order of Magnitude

• Every order of magnitude is 10x greater than the one before
• Order of magnitude


  A way to compare the approximate size of different objects
• Order of magnitude


  Every order of magnitude is ten times greater than the one before
• Counting zeros


  Tells you the order of magnitude (10 = 1 order, 100 = 2 orders, 1000 = 3 orders)
• Calculating order of magnitude

  Find how many times larger one object is than another

  2. Count the number of zeros to determine the order of magnitude
• Image Size = Magnification x Actual Size (Use IAM)
