I'm trying to understand a mathematical notation that involves both powers and units of measurement. Specifically, I'm confused about the expression '10 power 9 Giga'. I want to know what this means and how to interpret it correctly.

    Specifically, it is denoted as 10 raised to the power of 1.

    When we say "10 to the power of 9," we mean multiplying 10 by itself 9 times.

    The prefix for 10 raised to the power of 9 is "giga," which is abbreviated as "G."
