After a billion, of course, is trillion. Then comes quadrillion, quintrillion, sextillion, septillion, octillion, nonillion, and decillion.
In the American system each of the denominations above 1,000 millions (the American billion) is 1,000 times the preceding one (one trillion = 1,000 billions; one quadrillion = 1,000 trillions).
There's quadrillion, quintillion, sextillion, septillion, octillion, nonillion, decillion and more. Each is a thousand of the previous one. There's even a humongous number called vigintillion, a one with 63 zeros. But vigintillion is a shrimp compared to a googol. Googol?
The number 1000000000000000000000000 is called a quintillion. In the long scale system of naming numbers, a quintillion is equal to 10^18 or a million billion. In the short scale system, which is commonly used in the United States, a quintillion is equal to 10^15 or a billion billion.
The Earth Weighs About 13,170,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Pounds. If you're wondering how to pronounce that, it is thirteen septillion, one hundred seventy sextillion.
Quattuorvigintillion. A unit of quantity equal to 1075 (1 followed by 75 zeros).
a cardinal number represented in the U.S. by 1 followed by 51 zeros, and in Great Britain by 1 followed by 96 zeros.
The immediate response to the question: what comes after a trillion would be quadrillion since that is the number that comes exactly after a trillion. As discussed in our blog, a quadrillion can be defined as 1 with 15 zeros. It can written as 1,000,000,000,000,000.
One trillion equals a thousand billions, or million millions. 1 trillion consists of 1 followed by 12 zeros, that is, 1, 000, 000,000, 000 and can be written as 1012 (ten to the twelfth power). It takes about 32,000 years to finish 1 trillion seconds.
Then, you finally reach Millinillion. Repeat with those numbers to reach Billinillion. After that comes a Trillinillion, Quadrillinillion, Quintillinillion, Sextillinillion, Septillinillion, Octillinillion, Nonillinillion, and on...
A unit of quantity equal to 1066 (1 followed by 66 zeros).
Zillion sounds like an actual number because of its similarity to billion, million, and trillion, and it is modeled on these real numerical values. However, like its cousin jillion, zillion is an informal way to talk about a number that's enormous but indefinite.
Google is the word that is more common to us now, and so it is sometimes mistakenly used as a noun to refer to the number 10100. That number is a googol, so named by Milton Sirotta, the nephew of the American mathematician Edward Kasner, who was working with large numbers like 10100.
The thing is, infinity is not a number, but a concept or idea. A "googol" is the number 1 followed by 100 zeroes. The biggest number with a name is a "googolplex," which is the number 1 followed by a googol zeroes.
A unit of quantity equal to 1090 (1 followed by 90 zeros).
Duotrigintillion. A unit of quantity equal to 1099 (1 followed by 99 zeros).
A unit of quantity equal to 1078 (1 followed by 78 zeros).
1,000,000,000 (one billion, short scale; one thousand million or one milliard, one yard, long scale) is the natural number following 999,999,999 and preceding 1,000,000,001.
Not to be confused with Million. A millillion (alternately millinillion, milliatillion or milletillion) is equal to 103,003 in the short scale, or 106,000 in the long scale (this number is also called Platillion).
Written out in ordinary decimal notation, it is 1 followed by 10100 zeroes; that is, a 1 followed by a googol of zeroes.
A unit of quantity equal to 10102 (1 followed by 102 zeros).
