Subject: Names for the Powers of Ten
Date: Sun, 30 Nov 1997 10:47:02 -0500 (EST)
From: Binocular2@aol.com

I'm having trouble finding out the names of some numbers. For example:
10 to the 6th power is-- one million
10 to the 9th power is-- one billion
10 to the 12th power is-- one trillion
10 to the 15th power is-- a quad-drillion
10 to the 18th power is-- a quintillian
etc... etc....

would you happen to know the names of the numbers from (10 to the 21st power) all the way till (10 to the 100th power.) while skipping every three numbers ( 21st power, 24th power, 27th power etc...)?

in other words:

10 to the 21st power is--?????
10 to the 24th power is--?????
10 to the 27th power is--?????
10 to the 30th power is--?????

all the way up to 10 to the 100th power....(a "google" I think?)

If you could help me with this, I would apreciate it. Thanks alot.....
