10 m cm centimetre 10 m hm hectometre
10 m mm millimetre 10 m km kilometre

Usage

  • Empty arguments such as m=, c=, n= will turn the corresponding prefix in bold face.
  • Arguments prefixed by "x" will replace the default text for that prefix (for example for a link).
  • For μ use either mc= or μ=.
  • right= will make the template float right
  • The anchor parameter can be used to enable linking to e.g. #SI prefixed forms of metre directly to whereever the template is on the page. Note that the anchor text should contain underscores (_) rather than whitespace.
