Order of Magnitude: The class of scale or magnitude of any amount, where each class contains values of a fixed ratio (most often 10) to the class preceding it. For example, something that is 2 orders of magnitude larger is 100 times larger; something that is 3 orders of magnitude larger is 1000 times larger; and something
If numbers differ by one order of magnitude, x is about ten times different in quantity than y. If values differ by two orders of magnitude, they differ by a factor of about 100. Two numbers of the same order of magnitude have roughly the same scale: the larger value is less than ten times the smaller value.
They may actually be 2 inches or 0.5 in, but an order of magnitude accuracy is "good enough". Certainly 0.1 inch is World Population (1650):, 5 x 108, Brockport HS Science Dept.

19 May 2016 Many pretentious writers have begun to use the expression “orders of magnitude" without understanding what it means. The concept derives from the scientific notation of very large numbers in which each order of magnitude is ten times the previous one. When the bacteria in a flask have multiplied from
