How many zeros are in 50 billion?

Answer 1

* In those countries that use the long scale based on powers of a million, like Europe:

50 billion = 50 x (10^6)^2 = 50 x 10^12 = 5 x 10^13; this has thirteen zeros.

* In those countries that use the short scale base on powers of a thousand plus one, like USA:

50 billion = 50 x (10^3)^(2+1) = 50 x 10^9 = 5 x 10^10; this has ten of them.

Answer 2

one billion is 1000 million ( 1000,000,000)

50 billion is 50,000,000,000.
