I think you're asking about powers of ten, not multiples of ten. In whole numbers, the place values as they increase from right to left are: ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands, hundred thousands, millions, ten-millions, hundred millions, billions, ten-billions, hundred billions, trillions...

Each place value increases by another power of ten:

Place Value Power of ten

ones 10 to the zero power

tens 10 to the first power

hundreds 10 to the 2nd power (10 squared)

thousands 10 to the 3rd power (10 cubed)

ten-thousands 10 to the 4th power
