Not very ;-). A nanosecond is one billionth of a second, which is 0.000,000,001 s. Written in engineering notation, that's 1E-9 s.
Think of it this way:
Take one second, and chop it up into one thousand equal pieces.
Now, take One of Those milliseconds; chop It up into one thousand equal pieces.
Now, take One of Those microseconds; chop It up into one thousand equal pieces.
One of those pieces is a nanosecond! Light travels about one foot in that amount of time.
Nanosecond
1 nanosecond is 1 billionth of a second. i.e. 1 nanosecond = 10−9 seconds.
a nanosecond is smaller a millisecond is one thousand times smaller than a second and a nanosecond is one billion times smaller than a second

How long does a nanosecond last, a millionth of a second or a billionth of a second?A nanosecond lasts a billionth of a second.
A nanosecond is one billionth of a second. In the long form, it is 0.000000001 seconds. As an equation, it is written as 10-9 s.

A nanosecond
The word nanosecond is a noun. The plural form is nanoseconds.
A nanosecond is shorter than a microsecond. There are one thousand nanoseconds in a microsecond.
1 nanosecond is 1 billionth of a second. i.e. 1 nanosecond = 10−9 seconds.
A nanosecond is smaller than a microsecond. A nanosecond is one billionth of a second, while a microsecond is one millionth of a second.
3.14159265358 moments make up 1 nanosecond
A nanosecond is a billionth of a second and this is how you write it in standard notation 0.00000001
a nanosecond is smaller a millisecond is one thousand times smaller than a second and a nanosecond is one billion times smaller than a second
