    The name of a number 10 3n+3, where n is greater than or equal to 1000, is formed by concatenating the names of the numbers of the form 10 3m+3, where m represents each group of comma-separated digits of n, with each but the last "-illion" trimmed to "-illi-", or, in the case of m = 0, either "-nilli-" or "-nillion".

  3. Large numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_numbers

    A standardized way of writing very large numbers allows them to be easily sorted in increasing order, and one can get a good idea of how much larger a number is than another one. To compare numbers in scientific notation, say 5×10 4 and 2×10 5, compare the exponents first, in this case 5 > 4, so 2×10 5 > 5×10 4.

  4. Graham's number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham's_number

    Graham's number is an immense number that arose as an upper bound on the answer of a problem in the mathematical field of Ramsey theory. It is much larger than many other large numbers such as Skewes's number and Moser's number, both of which are in turn much larger than a googolplex. As with these, it is so large that the observable universe ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googolplex

    A typical book can be printed with 10 6 zeros (around 400 pages with 50 lines per page and 50 zeros per line). Therefore, it requires 10 94 such books to print all the zeros of a googolplex (that is, printing a googol zeros).

    Indefinite and fictitious numbers. Many languages have words expressing indefinite and fictitious numbers —inexact terms of indefinite size, used for comic effect, for exaggeration, as placeholder names, or when precision is unnecessary or undesirable. One technical term for such words is "non-numerical vague quantifier". [1]

    500 thousand million (long scale) dinars = 5 × 10 11 dinar banknotes = 500 billion (short scale) dinars. The later introduction of the new dinar came at an exchange rate of 1 new dinar = 1 × 10 27 dinars = ~1.3 × 10 27 pre 1990 dinars.

    1/52! chance of a specific shuffle Mathematics: The chances of shuffling a standard 52-card deck in any specific order is around 1.24 × 10 −68 (or exactly 1 ⁄ 52!) [4] Computing: The number 1.4 × 10 −45 is approximately equal to the smallest positive non-zero value that can be represented by a single-precision IEEE floating-point value.

    Crore. A crore (/ krɔːr /; abbreviated cr) denotes ten million (10,000,000 or 10 7 in scientific notation) and is equal to 100 lakh in the Indian numbering system.
