Large numbers, far beyond those encountered in everyday life—such as simple counting or financial transactions—play a crucial role in various domains.These expansive quantities appear prominently in mathematics, cosmology, cryptography, and statistical mechanics.
The highest numerical value banknote ever printed was a note for 1 sextillion pengő (10 21 or 1 milliard bilpengő as printed) printed in Hungary in 1946. In 2009, Zimbabwe printed a 100 trillion (10 14) Zimbabwean dollar note, which at the time of printing was worth about US$30. [13]
1/52! chance of a specific shuffle Mathematics: The chances of shuffling a standard 52-card deck in any specific order is around 1.24 × 10 −68 (or exactly 1 ⁄ 52!) [4] Computing: The number 1.4 × 10 −45 is approximately equal to the smallest positive non-zero value that can be represented by a single-precision IEEE floating-point value.
The highest number in this series listed in modern dictionaries is centillion, which is 10 to the 303rd power. [1] The interim powers of one thousand between vigintillion and centillion do not have standardized names, nor do any higher powers, but there are many ad hoc extensions in use.
A natural number in the range of 10 126 and -10 126 is, as well as some larger numbers such as one centillion and one millinillion. zero: Optional. The value to use when the number is 0. Default is "zero" for cardinal numbers, "zeroth" for ordinal numbers.
The decay time for a supermassive black hole of roughly 1 galaxy-mass (10 11 solar masses) due to Hawking radiation is on the order of 10 100 years. [7] Therefore, the heat death of an expanding universe is lower-bounded to occur at least one googol years in the future. A googol is considerably smaller than a centillion. [8]
Visualisation of powers of 10 from one to 1 trillion. In mathematics, a power of 10 is any of the integer powers of the number ten; in other words, ten multiplied by itself a certain number of times (when the power is a positive integer).
Since a US centillion is 1*10^303 it seems pretty clear that there is no way for a centillion of anything to exist within the universe as we can observe it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.23.224.65 ( talk ) 00:17, 27 August 2014 (UTC) [ reply ]
