Trillion big numbers?
What is a big number and what is not depends on the context. A trillion blood cells is a small number, a trillion living organisms on a planet is a small number. On the other hand, a trillion mammals on a planet is a large number.The measurement unit also makes a difference: I prefer to walk a trillion nanometres rather than wait for a bus. And I am more than 2 trillion milliseconds old.
Are you converting from a smaller to larger unit or larger to smaller unit converting millimeters to meter?
You convert to a larger unit. Smaller to larger. Metre is 1000 times larger than a millimetre
Is 120 meters greater than 12 meters?
Since the two units of measure are the same, the larger unit of measure is that with the larger number - therefore, 120 metres is larger than 12 metres.
What does femto mean in math?
Its a quadrillionth of a unit (3 more zeros than a trillion has)
When you convert from a small unit to a large unit what happens to the number of units?
The number of larger units is less than the number of smaller ones. EX: 130 cm == 1.3 m; 130 centimeters converts to 1.3 meters.
