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).
A typical book can be printed with 10 6 zeros (around 400 pages with 50 lines per page and 50 zeros per line). Therefore, it requires 10 94 such books to print all the zeros of a googolplex (that is, printing a googol zeros). [4] If each book had a mass of 100 grams, all of them would have a total mass of 10 93 kilograms.
10,000,000 (ten million) is the natural number following 9,999,999 and preceding 10,000,001. In scientific notation , it is written as 10 7 . In South Asia except for Sri Lanka , it is known as the crore .
The name of a number 10 3n+3, where n is greater than or equal to 1000, is formed by concatenating the names of the numbers of the form 10 3m+3, where m represents each group of comma-separated digits of n, with each but the last "-illion" trimmed to "-illi-", or, in the case of m = 0, either "-nilli-" or "-nillion". [17]
A generalization of the self-descriptive numbers, called the autobiographical numbers, allow fewer digits than the base, as long as the digits that are included in the number suffice to completely describe it. e.g. in base 10, 3211000 has 3 zeros, 2 ones, 1 two, and 1 three. Note that this depends on being allowed to include as many trailing ...
For higher powers of ten, naming diverges. The Indian system uses names for every second power of ten: lakh (10 5), crore (10 7), arab (10 9), kharab (10 11), etc. In the two Western systems, long and short scales, there are names for every third power of ten. The short scale uses million (10 6), billion (10 9), trillion (10 12), etc.

Words with the suffix-illion (e.g., zillion, [14] gazillion, [15] bazillion, [16] jillion, [17] bajillion, [18] squillion, [19] and others) are often used as informal names for unspecified large numbers by analogy to names of large numbers such as million (10 6), billion (10 9) and trillion (10 12). In Estonian, the compound word mustmiljon ...
