1 Billion billions! I've heard people say that this number is the legendary "Googol" from which the famous search engine takes its name, but this is not the case. A Googol is far larger than that. A billion billions is represented numerically like this:

1,000,000,000,000,000,000

that is, a one followed by 18 zeros! What do you call it? Well the etymology is actually rather easy to follow, as it still follows the same nomenclature as the rest of the counting numbers. 1 followed by 3 zeros is a thousand and you can have 999 of those. So the next 1 up from that is followed by 6 zeros, called a million, and you can have 999 of those too! And so on and so forth. the next 1 up from that is followed by 9 zeros, called a billion and you can have 999 of those as well! You can see the pattern emerging! So, to cut a long story short:

1,000 = thousand (3 zeros)

1,000,000 = million (6 zeros)

1,000,000,000 = billion (9 zeros)

1,000,000,000,000 = trillion (12 zeros)

1,000,000,000,000,000 = quadrillion (15 zeros)

1,000,000,000,000,000,000 = quintillion (18 zeros)

As we have already established that a billion billions is a 1 followed by 18 zeros, then this must obviously be a quintillion!! QED.

P.S. If you are curious as to the value of a Googol, well, it is a 1 followed by 1 HUNDERD ZEROS!!:

10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 If you want more information on this, go to wikipedia.org and search for "googol"

How are you feeling

Oh, that's a big number! When you multiply 1 billion by 1 billion, you get 1 trillion. Just imagine all the possibilities and beauty that can come from such a vast number. Keep exploring and creating, my friend!
