What's more...a trillion billion OR a billion trillion?

Answer 1

1 trillion is 1x10 to the 12th. power and 1 billion is 1x10 to the ninth power, so to do the math, you multiply them by each other by adding their exponents, so you get 1x10 to the 21st. power or a 1 followed by 21 zeros or

One Sextillion or a 1 with 21 zeros following it or:
1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

So both answers are the same.

Now if you do the same for the other number, you have 1x10 to the ninth power times 1x10 to the 12th power which is 1x10 to the 21st. power. I am not using the regular superscript numbers for the exponents because I don't have them on my computer.but it still adds up to one sextillion or:

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

Answer 2

A billion trillion. Because there's no such thing as a trillion billion, it doesn't exist, so a billion trillion must be greater.

No one ever says " I make a thousand hundred dollars a year" When you spell out words you go from smallest to greatest.

Answer 3

billion trillion. Do the math" He Took My Book Tom" He=hundreds ,Took=thousands, My=Millions,Book=Billion,Tom=Trillions

Answer 4

you are just multiplying the numbers together. Since multiplication is commutative in the real numbers, they are the same.

Examples:

100,000=100•1000=1000•100 (one hundred thousand= one thousand hundred)

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 = 1,000,000,000,000• 1,000,000,000
= 1,000,000,000• 1,000,000,000,000 (one trillion billion=one billion trilliion)

Answer 5

a billion trillion....

Answer 6

They are exactly the same number: 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 or 1 sextillion.

Answer 7

There are same

Answer 8

they are the same: 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
