(b) The number 10
was called a googol by the mathematician
Edward Kasner.
(i) How many times is 10 multiplied by itself to get a googol?
(ii) Look at the pattern in part (a). If you were to work out what a
googol is equal to, how many zeros would follow the 1?
e
(c) If you raise the number 10 to the power of a googol, you get a
.au
number called a googolplex.
(i) How many times is 10 multiplied by itself to get a googolplex?
(ii) If you were to work out what a googolplex is equal to, how many
zeros would follow the 1? How much time do you think you save
by writing a googolplex in index form?
