Ternary: The base-three numeral system with 0, 1, and 2 as digits. Quaternary: The base-four numeral system with 0, 1, 2, and 3 as digits. Hexadecimal: Base 16, widely used by computer system designers and programmers, as it provides a more human-friendly representation of binary-coded values.
Large numbers in mathematics may be large and finite, like a googol, or the large infinite cardinal numbers which have a subcategory here. Subcategories This category has the following 2 subcategories, out of 2 total.
A list of articles about numbers (not about numerals). Topics include powers of ten, notable integers, prime and cardinal numbers, and the myriad system.
16 × 4 = 64 6 − 4 = 2 64 + 2 = 66 66 × 9 = 594. Or 8 × 8 = 64 64 − 4 = 60 60 + 6 = 66 66 × 9 = 594. Contestants signal that they have obtained the target number by saying le compte est bon ("the total is good"), then give the details of their calculations. Ten points are awarded for reaching the target exactly, or for coming as close as ...

To compare numbers in scientific notation, say 5×10 4 and 2×10 5, compare the exponents first, in this case 5 > 4, so 2×10 5 > 5×10 4. If the exponents are equal, the mantissa (or coefficient) should be compared, thus 5×10 4 > 2×10 4 because 5 > 2.
In recreational mathematics, a ban number is a number that does not contain a particular letter when spelled out in English; in other words, the letter is "banned." Ban numbers are not precisely defined, since some large numbers do not follow the standards of number names (such as googol and googolplex ).
An alphabetic numeral system employs the letters of a script in the specific order of the alphabet in order to express numerals.. In Greek, letters are assigned to respective numbers in the following sets: 1 through 9, 10 through 90, 100 through 900, and so on.
