The table represents the metric volume measure of a liter. Each amount is represented by its power of 10.

A 2-column table with 5 rows. Column 1 is labeled Unit with entries centiliter, liter, hectoliter, kiloliter, megaliter. Column 2 is labeled Power of 10 with entries 10 Superscript negative 2, 10 Superscript 0, 10 squared, 10 cubed, 10 Superscript 6.

Complete the work to determine how many times larger a megaliter is than a hectoliter.

1. Divide powers:
106
102
2. Expand each power:
10 • 10 • 10 • 10 • 10 • 10
10 • 10
3. Divide common factors:
10 • 10 • 10 • 10 • 10 • 10
10 • 10
4. Simplify.
A megaliter is
times larger than a hectoliter.
