After a billion, of course, is trillion. Then comes quadrillion, quintrillion, sextillion, septillion, octillion, nonillion, and decillion. One of my favorite challenges is to have my math class continue to count by "illions" as far as they can.
The immediate response to the question: what comes after a trillion would be quadrillion since that is the number that comes exactly after a trillion. As discussed in our blog, a quadrillion can be defined as 1 with 15 zeros. It can written as 1,000,000,000,000,000.
1,000,000,000 (one billion, short scale; one thousand million or one milliard, one yard, long scale) is the natural number following 999,999,999 and preceding 1,000,000,001. With a number, "billion" can be abbreviated as b, bil or bn.
In the American system each of the denominations above 1,000 millions (the American billion) is 1,000 times the preceding one (one trillion = 1,000 billions; one quadrillion = 1,000 trillions).
One million (1,000,000), or one thousand thousand, is the natural number following 999,999 and preceding 1,000,001.
