No, gazillion is not a specific number. It is an informal term that refers to a large quantity of something.
This is the Greek letter mu, used to denote 'micro', as 'm' was already taken. None of the words jillion, zillion, squillion, gazillion, kazillion, bajillion, or bazillion (or Brazilian) are real numbers.
A Bazillion can then have at least a zillion zeroes, and a Gazillion at least a bazillion zeroes. Or perhaps it's best to simply think of a zillion as a generic member of the -illion series, preferably a largish one.
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.
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.
noun, plural no·nil·lions, (as after a numeral) no·nil·lion. a cardinal number represented in the U.S. by 1 followed by 30 zeros, and in Great Britain by 1 followed by 54 zeros. amounting to one nonillion in number.
A unit of quantity equal to 1069 (1 followed by 69 zeros).
Billion,Trillion, Quadrillion, Quintillion, Sextillion, Septillion, Octillion, Nonillion, Decillion, Undecillion, Duodecillion, Tredecillion, Quattuordecillion, Quindecillion, Sexdexillion, Septendecillion, Octodecillion, Novemdecillion, Vigintillion.
Written out in ordinary decimal notation, it is 1 followed by 10100 zeroes; that is, a 1 followed by a googol of zeroes.
vi·gin·til·lion ˌvī-ˌjin-ˈtil-yən. often attributive. US : a number equal to 1 followed by 63 zeros see Table of Numbers. also, British : a number equal to 1 followed by 120 zeros see Table of Numbers.
a cardinal number represented in the U.S. by 1 followed by 303 zeros, and in Great Britain by 1 followed by 600 zeros. amounting to one centillion in number.
noun, plural sex·de·cil·lions, (as after a numeral) sex·de·cil·lion. a cardinal number represented in the U.S. by 1 followed by 51 zeros, and in Great Britain by 1 followed by 96 zeros. amounting to one sexdecillion in number.
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.
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...
isn't it sextillion? There are actually three accepted words for that number: hexillion, heptrillion, and sextillion.
We call 1,000,000 a million, 1,000,000,000 a billion, 1,000,000,000,000 a trillion, 1,000,000,000,000,000 a quadrillion, 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 a quintillion, and 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 a sextillion.
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).
What's bigger than a googolplex? Even though a googolplex is immense, Graham's number and Skewes' number are much larger. Named after mathematicians Ronald Graham and Stanley Skewes, both numbers are so large that they can't be represented in the observable universe.
The number 6174 is known as Kaprekar's constant after the Indian mathematician D. R. Kaprekar.
Infinity is not a number, but a concept. We can define infinity as the object that is larger than any other number, but infinity is not a real number itself, since it doesn't fulfill the same axioms that the real numbers do.
K comes from the Greek word kilo which means a thousand. The Greeks would likewise show million as M, short for Mega.
