What is a quadrillion divided by 76 billion?

Answer 1

• In those countries that use the long scale (based on powers of a million) like Europe:

1 quadrillion ÷ 76 billion = (1 x (106)4) ÷ (76 x (106)2)

= (1 ÷ 76) x (106)4-2

≈ 0.0132 x (106)2

= 0.0132 billion

= 13.2 thousand million or 13.2 milliard

• In those countries that use the short scale (based on powers of a thousand plus 1) like USA:

1 quadrillion ÷ 76 billion = (1 x (103)4+1) ÷ (76 x (103)2+1)

= (1 ÷ 76) x (103)4+1-2-1

≈ 0.0132 x (103)2

= 0.0132 million

= 13.2 thousand

= 13,200
