Metric System

Sistem Desimal

Definisi

Sistem bilangan berbasis 10 di mana setiap nilai tempat adalah sepuluh kali nilai tempat yang lebih kecil berikutnya, membentuk landasan matematis sistem metrik.

Penjelasan

The decimal system uses ten digits (0–9) and positional notation: in 1,234.56, the '1' represents 1,000, '2' represents 200, '3' represents 30, '4' represents 4, '5' represents 0.5, and '6' represents 0.06. Metric prefixes exploit this structure — kilo (×1,000), hecto (×100), deca (×10), deci (÷10), centi (÷100), milli (÷1,000) — making unit conversion as simple as moving a decimal point.
