A "gazillion" isn't a real number but a made-up word meaning an extremely large, indefinite quantity, used informally to exaggerate a huge amount, like a million or billion but much bigger, implying "countless" or "too many to count". It's a hyperbolic term, similar to "zillion," "jillion," or "bazillion," used for emphasis rather than a specific mathematical value.
He claims that "gaz" is actually latin for earthly edge. Assuming this to mean the earths circumference in greek miles, which he claims to be 28,810, he defines a gazillion as 1 followed by 28,810 sets of zeroes.
Quintillion is the denomination used for large numbers. A quintillion is the number name for 10 raised to the power of 18, that is, one followed by 18 zeros. In the International numeral system, a quintillion has 6 groups of zeros in 3, that is, 1,000,000,000,000,000,000.
No, a "zillion" is not a precise, real number; it's an informal, made-up word used to mean a very large, unspecified quantity, similar to "gazillion" or "bajillion," used for exaggeration or humor, not mathematical definition. While it sounds like million or billion, it has no agreed-upon value, unlike actual numbers such as trillions or quadrillions, making it a figurative term for an indefinite amount.
Because of that realistic ending, this word sounds almost real, but it's just another informal way to describe quantities that are overwhelmingly large, whether they're actually too big to count or you want to exaggerate them: "I'm so popular. I have a gazillion followers on Twitter!"
Yes, an octillion is a very large number, representing 1 followed by 27 zeros (102710 to the 27th power1027) in the short scale (used in the U.S., Canada, and France) or 1 followed by 48 zeros (104810 to the 48th power1048) in the long scale (used in Britain and Germany). It's part of the naming system for large numbers that continues from million, billion, trillion, and so on, used in science and finance, although powers of ten are more common in science.
This sequence does not extend above 52 because it is, an untouchable number, since it is never the sum of proper divisors of any number. It is the first untouchable number larger than 2 and 5.
A vigintillion is a massive number, most commonly defined in the short scale as 1 followed by 63 zeros (106310 to the 63rd power1063), making it one thousand novemdecillion, though historically and in the long scale (used in some European countries), it could mean 1 followed by 120 zeros (1012010 to the 120th power10120). The modern standard in English-speaking countries uses the short scale, where a vigintillion is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,0001 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 comma 0001,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
Quattuorvigintillion. A unit of quantity equal to 1075 (1 followed by 75 zeros).
A unit of quantity equal to 1051 (1 followed by 51 zeros).
Using this algorithm with hand computations on paper, Lucas showed in 1876 that the 39-digit number (2127 – 1) equals 170,141,183,460,469,231,731,687,303,715,884,105,727, and that value is prime. Also known as M127, this number remains the largest prime verified by hand computations.
It's rather rare but vigintillion is real enough, though its meaning has been disputed. Some old references explain it as 1 followed by 120 zeros (10120) but modern ones as 1 followed by a mere 63 zeros (1063).
None of the words jillion, zillion, squillion, gazillion, kazillion, bajillion, or bazillion (or Brazilian) are real numbers. In the last two cases above, you'll notice that instead of an equals symbol we've used a squiggly equals symbol.
a cardinal number represented in the U.S. by 1 followed by 303 zeros, and in Great Britain by 1 followed by 600 zeros.
As we discussed in the definition of a trillion, one trillion is written as 1,000,000,000,000 in the International number system. It has 12 zeros after the 1. Also, we know that one billion is written as 1,000,000,000. It has 9 zeroes after the 1.
a cardinal number represented in the U.S. by 1 followed by 30 zeros, and in Great Britain by 1 followed by 54 zeros.
Math Today: How many zeros are there in a VIGINTILLION? A cardinal number represented in the U.S. by 1 followed by 63 zeros.
A unit of quantity equal to 1096 (1 followed by 96 zeros).

There is no biggest, last number … except infinity. Except infinity isn't a number.
According to global superstitions, the unluckiest numbers are 12, 17, 13 and 666. The Japanese culture also believes some ages to be unlucky including 25, 42 and 60.
70 is the smallest weird number, which is a natural number that is abundant but not semiperfect. 70 is also part of the only nontrivial solution pair to the cannonball problem, along with 24.
