It's from what I remember 1 to the sixth power. Or simply put 1 with six zeroes behind it, the zeroes being the "power" 1 is raised to.

1/6 x 60 = 10
60 x 1/6 = 60/6 = 10
(1/6) x (60) = 10
1,000,000.106 = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10x 10 (add the zeros; 6 zeros after 1) = 1,000,000Adding the zeros only works with exponents of 10, any other number will not work.
0.18 = (0 x 1) + (1/10) + (8/100)
10
Your 106 is 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 1,000,000 If you have 10 to a given power, then it's 10 times itself that many times. The rule of thumb is that 10 to any power is a 1 followed by that many zeros. What that means is that if you have 103 you'll have a 1 followed by 3 zeros, or 1,000. In the case of 108 you'll have a 1 followed by 8 zeros, or 100,000,000.
Six tenths of 1 mile = 0.6 miles Or, 1760 x 6/10 = 1056 yards Or, 5280 x 6/10 = 3168 feet
5^6 = 15,625 = (1 x 100000) + (5 x 10000) + (0 x 1000) + (6 x 100) + (2 x 10) + (5 x 1)
ten 12 x 5/6 = 60/6 = 10/1
1/6 of 10 is 1 2/3
