Convert hecto to atto

Learn how to convert 1 hecto to atto step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (h e c t o) = x (a t t o)

Define the prefix value(s)

T h e v a l u e o f h e c t o i s 10^{2}

T h e v a l u e o f a t t o i s 10^{- 18}

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (h e c t o) = x (a t t o)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{2} = x \times 10^{- 18}

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{2} = x \cdot 10^{- 18}

Conversion Equation

10^{2} = x \times 10^{- 18}

Switch sides

x \times 10^{- 18} = 10^{2}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{10^{- 18}})

x \times 10^{- 18} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 18}} = 10^{2} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 18}}

Cancel

x \times 10^{- 18} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 18}} = 10^{2} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 18}}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{2}}{10^{- 18}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 18}} can be rewritten to 10^{18}

Rewrite

x = 10^{18} \times 10^{2}

Simplify

x = 10^{20}

Solve

x

x = 10^{20}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (h e c t o) = 10^{20} (a t t o)
