Answer:

A prefix

Step-by-step explanation:

Prefix is a letter or syllable added to a word to modify.

Kilo-gram

Kilo=10^3

It modifies the word 'gram'.

Answer:

Kilo is a prefix

Step-by-step explanation:

Prefixes are the beginning of words.

Thus KILOgram is at the beginning.

Suffix is at the END of a word

Unit is the body of the word
