Sextillion
IncaBlue. Confidence votes 50.4K. Good with numbers and even better with a calculator. The next big number after quintillion is sextillion, (that's 1 followed by 21 zeros!) Depends what you mean, the next consecutive number is a quintillion and 1, just like the number after 100 is 101. 100 *EDIT* to the idiot who said 100, you would have 100 billion. to put it in ways to understand, if you had 999 billion, just add one more billion and you have quadrillion, … and you would need 1 quadrillion past 999 quadrillion to reach quintillion. so... many many many billions. To comprehend the meaning of these figures, it is necessary to observe that a quintillion is to a billion as a billion is to unity; in other words, there are as many billions in a quintillion as there are units in a billion. 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea by Verne, Jules View in context.  1,000,000,000,000-trillion. 1,000,000,000,000,000-quadrillion. 1,000,000,000,000,000,000-quintillion. and it goes from there most of the way. a google, 1 times 10 to the 100th, was named by a mathmatician's three(or somewhere around there)-year-old, when asked about what to call a 1 with 100 zeroes behind it. 303. There is also the number googol. It has 100 zeros after it, and it looks like this: 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. Beyond that is the googolplex, which is a one followed by a googol zeroes. A googolplex is actually a useless number to the scientific community because it exceeds the number of particles in in universe. The next big number after quintillion is sextillion, (that's 1 followed by 21 zeros!)   Depends what you mean, the next consecutive number is a quintillion and 1, just like … the number after 100 is 101. 1 person found this useful. Answered. In Science. What comes next 100....1000....   - thousand-million-billion-trillion-quadrillion-quintillion-sextillion-septillion-octillion-nonillion-decillion etcetera. Nonillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (30 zeros). Decillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (33 zeros). The number Googol (termed by Milton Sirotta) has 100 zeros after it, then there is the number Googolplex, a 1 followed by a googol of zeros. This list goes on and on. Place value refers to the placement of a number. An easy way to find the value of the above numbers in the short scale (as well as the number of zeroes needed to write them) is to take the number indicated by the prefix (such as 2 in bi llion, 4 in quadri llion, 18 in octodec illion, etc.), add one to it, and multiply that result by 3. Nevertheless, large numbers have an intellectual fascination and are of mathematical interest, and giving them names is one of the ways in which people try to conceptualize and understand them. One of the first examples of this is The Sand Reckoner, in which Archimedes gave a system for naming large numbers.
