Power Of 10
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). By definition, the number one is a power (the zeroth power) of ten. The first few non-negative powers of ten are: : 1, 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000, 10,000,000... Positive powers In decimal notation the ''n''th power of ten is written as '1' followed by ''n'' zeroes. It can also be written as 10''n'' or as 1E''n'' in E notation. See order of magnitude and orders of magnitude (numbers) for named powers of ten. There are two conventions for naming positive powers of ten, beginning with 109, called the long and short scales. Where a power of ten has different names in the two conventions, the long scale name is shown in parentheses. The positive 10 power related to a short scale name can be determined based on its Latin name-prefix using the following formula: 10 prefix-n ...

Long And Short Scales
The long and short scales are two power of 10, powers of ten number naming systems that are consistent with each other for smaller order of magnitude, numbers, but are contradictory for larger numbers. Other numbering systems, particularly in East Asia and South Asia, have large number naming that differs from both the long and short scales. Such numbering systems include the Indian numbering system and Chinese numerals, Chinese, Japanese numerals#Powers of 10, Japanese, and Korean Peninsula, Korean numerals. Much of the remainder of the world adopted either the short or long scale. Countries using the long scale include most countries in continental Europe and most that are Geographical distribution of French speakers, French-speaking, Geographical distribution of German speakers, German-speaking and Hispanophone, Spanish-speaking. Use of the short scale is found in most Anglophone, English and Arabic speaking countries, most Eurasian post-communist countries and Brazil. F ...

Million
1,000,000 (one million), or one thousand thousand, is the natural number following 999,999 and preceding 1,000,001. The word is derived from the early Italian ''millione'' (''milione'' in modern Italian), from ''mille'', "thousand", plus the augmentative suffix ''-one''. It is commonly abbreviated: * in British English as m (not to be confused with the metric prefix "m" '' milli'', for , or with metre), * M, * MM ("thousand thousands", from Latin "Mille"; not to be confused with the Roman numeral = 2,000), * mm (not to be confused with millimetre), or * mn, mln, or mio can be found in financial contexts. In scientific notation, it is written as or 106. Physical quantities can also be expressed using the SI prefix mega (M), when dealing with SI units; for example, 1 megawatt (1 MW) equals 1,000,000 watts. The meaning of the word "million" is common to the short scale and long scale numbering systems, unlike the larger numbers, which have different names in the tw ...

Indian Numbering System
The Indian numbering system is used in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh to express large numbers, which differs from the International System of Units. Commonly used quantities include ''lakh'' (one hundred thousand) and ''crore'' (ten million) written as 1,00,000 and 1,00,00,000 respectively in some locales. For example: 150,000 rupees is "1.5 ''lakh'' rupees" which can be written as "1,50,000 rupees", and 30,000,000 (thirty million) rupees is referred to as "3 ''crore'' rupees" which can be written as "3,00,00,000 rupees". There are names for numbers larger than ''crore'', but they are less commonly used. These include ''arab'' (100 ''crore'', 109), ''kharab'' (100 ''arab'', 1011), ''nil'' or sometimes transliterated as ''neel'' (100 kharab, 1013), ''padma'' (100 nil, 1015), ''shankh'' (100 padma, 1017), and ''mahashankh'' (100 shankh, 1019). In common parlance (though inconsistent), the ''lakh'' and ''crore'' terminology repeats for larger numbers. Thus ''la ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lakh
A lakh (; abbreviated L; sometimes written lac) is a unit in the Indian numbering system equal to one hundred thousand (100,000; scientific notation: 105). In the Indian 2, 2, 3 convention of digit grouping, it is written as 1,00,000. For example, in India, 150,000 rupees becomes 1.5 ''lakh'' rupees, written as 1,50,000 or INR 1,50,000. It is widely used both in official and other contexts in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. It is often used in Bangladeshi, Indian, Pakistani, and Sri Lankan English. Usage In Indian English, the word is used both as an attributive and non-attributive noun with either an unmarked or marked ("-s") plural, respectively. For example: "1 ''lakh'' people"; "''lakhs'' of people"; "20 ''lakh'' rupees"; "''lakhs'' of rupees". In the abbreviated form, usage such as "5L" or "5 lac" (for "5 ''lakh'' rupees") is common. In this system of numeration, 100 ''lakh'' is called one '' crore'' and i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Myriad
In the context of numeric naming systems for powers of ten, myriad is the quantity ten thousand ( 10,000). Idiomatically, in English, ''myriad'' is an adjective used to mean that a group of things has indefinitely large quantity. ''Myriad'' derives from the ancient Greek for ten thousand () and is used with this meaning in literal translations from Greek, Latin or Sinospheric languages ( Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese), and in reference to ancient Greek numerals. The term ''myriad'' is also used in the form "a myriad" for a 100 km × 100 km square (10,000 km²) the grid size of the British Ordnance Survey National Grid and the US Military Grid Reference System. It contains 100 hectads. History The Aegean numerals of the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations included a symbol composed of a circle with four dashes to denote tens of thousands. In classical Greek numerals, myriad was written as a capital mu: Μ. To distinguish this numeral from letters, i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
10000 (number)
10,000 (ten thousand) is the natural number following 9,999 and preceding 10,001. Name Many languages have a specific word for this number: in Ancient Greek it is (the etymological root of the word myriad in English), in Aramaic , in Hebrew [], in Chinese language, Chinese (Mandarin , Cantonese , Hokkien ''bān''), in Japanese language, Japanese [], in Khmer language, Khmer [], in Korean language, Korean [], in Russian language, Russian [], in Vietnamese language, Vietnamese , in Sanskrit अयुत [''ayuta''], in Thai language, Thai [], in Malayalam [], and in Malagasy language, Malagasy ''alina''. In many of these languages, it often denotes a very large but indefinite number. The classical Greeks used letters of the Greek alphabet to represent Greek numerals: they used a capital letter mu (Μ) to represent ten thousand. This Greek root was used in early versions of the metric system in the form of the decimal prefix myria-. Depending on the country, the nu ...

Kilo-
Kilo is a decimal prefix, decimal metric prefix, unit prefix in the metric system denoting multiplication by one thousand (103). It is used in the International System of Units, where it has the symbol k, in Letter case, lowercase. The prefix ''kilo'' is derived from the Greek language, Greek word (), meaning "thousand". In 19th century English it was sometimes spelled chilio, in line with a Linguistic purism, puristic opinion by Thomas Young (scientist), Thomas Young. As an opponent of suggestions to introduce the metric system in Britain, he qualified the nomenclature adopted in France as barbarous. Examples * one kilogram (kg) is 1000 grams * one kilometre (km) is 1000 metres * one kilojoule (kJ) is 1000 joules * one kilolitre (kL) is 1000 litres * one kilobaud (kBd) is 1000 bauds * one kilohertz (kHz) is 1000 hertz * one kilodalton (kDa) is 1000 Dalton (unit), daltons * one kilobit (kb) is 1000 bits * one kilobyte (kB) is 1000 bytes * one kiloohm is (kΩ) is 1000 ohms * ...

Thousand
1000 or one thousand is the natural number following 999 and preceding 1001. In most English-speaking countries, it can be written with or without a comma or sometimes a period separating the thousands digit: 1,000. A group of one thousand units is sometimes known, from Ancient Greek, as a chiliad. A period of one thousand years may be known as a chiliad or, more often from Latin, as a millennium. The number 1000 is also sometimes described as a short thousand in medieval contexts where it is necessary to distinguish the Germanic concept of 1200 as a long thousand. It is the first 4-digit integer. Notation * The decimal representation for one thousand is ** 1000—a one followed by three zeros, in the general notation; ** 1 × 103—in engineering notation, which for this number coincides with: ** 1 × 103 exactly—in scientific normalized exponential notation; ** 1 E+3 exactly—in scientific E notation. * The SI prefix for a thousand units is "kilo-", abbreviated ...

Hecto-
''Hecto'' (symbol: h) is a decimal unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one hundred. It was adopted as a multiplier in 1795, and comes from the Greek , meaning "hundred". In 19th century English it was sometimes spelled "hecato", in line with a puristic opinion by Thomas Young. Its unit symbol as an SI prefix in the International System of Units (SI) is the lower case letter h. The prefix is rarely used in general, but has certain specific applications: * hectopascal (hPa), in meteorology, for atmospheric pressure, the modern equivalent of the traditional millibar. * hectolitre (hl or hL), in agriculture, for liquids (notably milk and alcoholic beverages) and bulk commodities (e.g., grain). * hectogram (hg), in agronomy, for quantities of animal feed (hectogram/animal) and for measures of agricultural productivity (hectogram/hectare); also used in Italy abbreviated as , and in Canada, New Zealand and Sweden simply as 100 g, for retail sale of cold cu ...
