1,000,000
1,000,000,000 (one billion, short scale; one thousand million or milliard, long scale) is the natural number following 999,999,999 and preceding 1,000,000,001.
In scientific notation, it is written as 1 × 109.
Previously in British English (but not in American English), the word "billion" referred to a million millions (1,000,000,000,000). However, this is no longer the case, and the word has been used unambiguously to mean one thousand million (1,000,000,000) for some time.[1][2] The alternative term "one thousand million" is rare and is used primarily to ease understanding among non-native speakers of English, as many other languages use words similar to "billion" (e.g. Spanish billón) to mean one trillion (1,000,000,000,000 or a million millions).
In the South Asian numbering system, it is known as 100 crore or 1 Arab.
109 seconds is 114 days short of 32 calendar years (≈ 31.7 years).
About 109 minutes ago, the Roman Empire was flourishing and Christianity was emerging. (109 minutes is roughly 1,900 years.)
About 109 hours ago, modern human beings and their ancestors were living in the Stone Age (more precisely, the Middle Paleolithic). (109 hours is roughly 114,000 years.)
About 109 days ago, Australopithecus, an ape-like creature related to an ancestor of modern humans, roamed the African savannas. (109 days is roughly 2.7 million years.)
About 109 months ago, dinosaurs walked the Earth during the late Cretaceous. (109 months is roughly 82 million years.)
About 109 years—a gigaannus—ago, the first multicellular eukaryotes appeared on Earth.
The universe is thought to be about 13.8 × 109 years old.[4]
Distance
109 inches is 15,783 miles (25,400 km), more than halfway around the world and thus sufficient to reach any point on the globe from any other point.
109 metres (called a gigameter) is almost three times the distance from the Earth to the Moon.
109 kilometres is over six times the distance from the Earth to the Sun.
Finance
The possession of assets with total value of 109 United States dollars would place a person among the world's wealthiest individuals.
As visualized in a work by artist Michael Marcovici, this amount of money in stacks of hundred-dollar bills can fit on twelve wrapped pallets.[5]
Area
A billion square inches would be a square about one half mile on a side.
A piece of finely woven bed sheet cloth that contained a billion holes would measure about 500 square feet (46 m2), large enough to cover a moderate sized apartment.
Volume
There are a billion cubic millimeters in a cubic meter.
A billion grains of table salt or granulated sugar would occupy a volume of about 2.5 cubic feet (0.071 m3).
A billion cubic inches would be a volume comparable to a large commercial building slightly larger than a typical supermarket.
Natural landscape
A small mountain, slightly larger than Stone Mountain Georgia, United States, would weigh (have a mass of) a billion tons.
That is a lot of botnets.
Guess I should have HTML encoded that, sry. But I'm not going to log out of this account and into my other account just so I can edit one measly little carat that you're stupid enough to care so much about, you fag. Maybe you could just live with my bad text formatting skills, k? HTML is for fags anyway.
TL;DR: SUCK MY DICK.
I liked the fact that you couldn't even say it once yourself, do you have some trauma related to 1000000000 your post is hilarious though. No need to get upset.
