To put in perspective the size of a googol, the mass of an electron, just under 10 −30 kg, can be compared to the mass of the visible universe, estimated at between 10 50 and 10 60 kg. [5] It is a ratio in the order of about 10 80 to 10 90 , or at most one ten-billionth of a googol (0.00000001% of a googol).
If each book had a mass of 100 grams, all of them would have a total mass of 10 93 kilograms. In comparison, Earth's mass is 5.97 × 10 24 kilograms, [5] the mass of the Milky Way galaxy is estimated at 1.8 × 10 42 kilograms, [6] and the total mass of all the stars in the observable universe is estimated at 2 × 10 52 kg.

10 000 000 000; short scale: ten billion; long scale: ten thousand million, or ten milliard) Biology – bacteria in the human body: There are roughly 10 10 bacteria in the human mouth. [29] Computing – web pages: approximately 5.6 × 10 10 web pages indexed by Google as of 2010.
Order of magnitude is a concept used to discuss the scale of numbers in relation to one another. Two numbers are "within an order of magnitude" of each other if their ratio is between 1/10 and 10. In other words, the two numbers are within about a factor of 10 of each other. [1] For example, 1 and 1.02 are within an order of magnitude.
Published estimates for the 1st century ("AD 1") suggest uncertainty of the order of 50% (estimates range between 150 and 330 million). Some estimates extend their timeline into deep prehistory, to " 10,000 BC", i.e., the early Holocene , when world population estimates range roughly between 1 and 10 million (with an uncertainty of up to an ...
For example, "one million" is clearly definite, but "a million" could be used to mean either a definite (she has a million followers now) or an indefinite value (she signed what felt like a million papers). The title The Book of One Thousand and One Nights (lit. "a thousand nights and one night") impiles a large number of nights. [22]
For example, class 5 is defined to include numbers between 10 10 10 10 6 and 10 10 10 10 10 6, which are numbers where X becomes humanly indistinguishable from X 2 [14] (taking iterated logarithms of such X yields indistinguishibility firstly between log(X) and 2log(X), secondly between log(log(X)) and 1+log(log(X)), and finally an extremely ...
