The name "nonillion" sounds like it equals zero, but really a nonillion is 1 followed by 30 zeroes.

Is it greater, or smaller, than a "Brazilian"?

One googol is one followed by 100 zeros. One googolplex is one followed by one googol zeros.

Yes. The number of atoms in the known Universe is estimated to be around 10 followed by 85 zeros.

So a googol is the number of atoms in the whole entire universe multiplied by a "thousand trillion" ( I am using the American 'trillion' which is 10 to the power of 12).

So a googolplex is a one ...followed by the same number of zeros as above ( a thousand trillion times the number of all of the atoms in the universe).

A googol is even greater than what the salary of disgraced quarterback Deshuan Watson would be if his salary were to be converted into Italian lira!

A googol is the number of lies told to the American people by the first 44 presidents combined.

A googolplex is the number of lies told to us by Donald Trump alone! :lol:
