The correct answer is

D- 4 watts


In fact, the different prefixes correspond to the following:

kilowatt: \(1 kW = 10^3 W\)

megawatt: \(1 MW=10^6 W\)

gigawatt: \(1 GW=10^9 W\)


Using the list above, we can convert all the options into Watts:

A) \(1 GW=1 \cdot 10^9 W\)

B) \(2 kW=2 \cdot 10^3 W\)

C) \(3 MW=3 \cdot 10^6 W\)

D) \(4 W\)

Therefore, the smallest quantity is D) 4 Watts.
