Strictly speaking, as per the 1st answer, the order of magnitude (OM) is expressed as an integer and is the next lowest power of (usually) 10. That is, anything between 1*10^23 and 9.999...*10^23 would be said to be an OM of 23. However, engineers and scientists are often interested in a little more precision even as they continue to use the OM approximation, so you'll hear, e.g., "six and a half OMs" when referring to a number logarithmically closer to ~3,000,000 than to 1,000,000 or 10,000,000.

Density ought to easily accept in weight/volume. yet right it is a thanks to remodel the 4 lbs to mass which, interior the English gadget, is slugs: W = m*g 4 lbs = m*32 ft/s^2 m = 4 lbs / 32 (ft/s^2) = .120 5 slugs yet now there's a situation. volume is in gadgets of in^3, or meter^3. you in elementary words gave length and width. what's the thickness? Multiply all 3 dimensions mutually and compute D = m/v.
