What is one nonillion divided by 100 billion?

Answer 1

One nonillion is a very large number. It is equal to 10^30

or a one followed by 30 zeros. 100 billion is also a big number, but much smaller than one nonillion. It is equal to 10^11

or a one followed by 11 zeros. To divide one nonillion by 100 billion, we need to subtract the exponents of 10. That is, 10^11/10^30​=10^30−11=10^19

So, one nonillion divided by 100 billion is equal to 10^19

or a one followed by 19 zeros. That is a very large number too, but much smaller than one nonillion. To give you some perspective, one nonillion is about 100 times the estimated number of atoms in the observable universe, while 10^19

is about the number of grains of sand on Earth.
