What does the yocto prefix represent?

Yocto denotes a factor of 10⁻²⁴, representing extremely small quantities in scientific measurements.

How is femto different from yocto?

Femto denotes 10⁻¹⁵, which is larger than yocto by a factor of 10⁹, making it suitable for slightly larger tiny measurements.

Why convert from yocto to femto?

Converting makes tiny values easier to interpret and use in scientific and engineering contexts.
