True, but the pattern would break down with (the long-scale) definition of trillion in any case. The long scale makes sense because it is powers of a million - - one million - 10^6, - one billion (long scale) - 10^12 - ‘bi’ meaning two, is a million squared, - one trillion (long scale) - 10^18 - ‘tri’ meaning three is a million cubed, - one quadrillion (long scale) - 10^24 - ‘quad’ meaning four is a million to the power four. |
