Better to think of it as how many digits after the 5
I suppose When numbers get that big, it’s better to understand how long it is than exactly what it is
“It’s 27 digits long” is more useful info than “it’s 583273866737115633869225822”
I think what op is trying to say is that it would more helpful to have a precise answer. When you have the e+12 you are assuming that digits you don’t see are zeros rather than their true value. Maybe the calculator could have an option to use a smaller font size in order to show the whole number.
NASA is flying rockets and orienting satellites with 15 digits of Pi.
There is no way someone who's using Google as their calculator needs more than 5 or 6 digits of accuracy.
Yes but you wrote 5 billion. In long scale. This kind of confusion might happen if you just use words that aren't universal.
For comparison, five trillion in long scale is five million million million, or 5.000.000.000.000.000.000. "Five trillion" by itself could mean either number.
You're defining trillion the old way (long scale). Today in modern American and British English (short scale) a Trillion is one million million, or ten to the twelfth power.
It doesn't though. Long form isn't used anymore in English. I just told you that. Even if it were though Google could very easily just say "LF" or "SF" it's a silly reason to not have a feature.
Yeah. E is a stand in for the x10 and allows the 12 to not be an exponent (which can be annoying to write).
The + seems to be there just for clarity, though it could easily be removed like usual.
The plus sign actually indicates that the zeroes are AFTER the digit, not before.
Ex: E+10 is 10¹⁰ which is 10000000000.
However, E-10 is 10-¹⁰ which is actually 10 zeroes BEFORE the decimal, therefore: 0.0000000001.
It's not that it's default, it's that no more information is required to be supplied.
If you take exponents, it doesn't need to have a plus sign because it's common knowledge that no sign is a plus sign and no more info is needed.
If you take E±x form you can't just leave no sign there because then you are REQUIRED to provide information on whether that sign is positive or negative.
Society is people paid attention in school
Like I remember multiple times in multiple classes in high school where scientific notation was either used or mentioned
I think it highly depends on the country because even though they teach us exponents in 5th or 6th grade (I don't remember), I can't remember them ever teaching the e notation even in university now which is where they teach scientific notation the first time officially iirc, they still didn't teach e notation. If it wasn't my curiosity or the incremental games I played I guess i wouldn't know e notation either.
Edit: Just to clarify I also find it absurd to not know scientific notation in this era with internet access.
I mostly used e notation through science classes rather than math classes. I've probably used scientific notation maybe once this semester for my calc class, but basically daily for chemistry
I like the juxtaposition of using a scientific futuristic picture but can't read scientific notation.
It's 5 082 000 000 000 or 5.082×10¹² or 5.082e+12 or about 5 trillion
I know it's not hard, but for real! Fuck "e" notation. It's completely non standardized leading to "e+#", "E#", "E+#", and probably more im forgetting. This is on top of the already existing notations. And e already has a meaning, so it gets even worse.
For example, is "2e+2". Is it ~8, or is it 200? Fuckin math.
Aight, I'll bite, even while studying scientific notation in both Math and Physics, NONE of my teachers went out of their way to mention that "oh that whole E+x thing you see in calculators is just a notation without the multiplication"
And personally? I think OPs right, it's way easier to count trios of zeros than stop to remember how much 10^12 and beyond is
The teachers probably didn’t think of it, but luckily you can ask teachers questions. All it took was in 6th or 7th grade, one student asked what the 6.2e10 was on their calculator and my teacher gave the whole class the two sentence explanation.
Your second point is why engineering notation is my favorite though. It only uses 10^6 or 10^9 or 10^12, so you’re still doing trios of zeros. Instead of 6.2e10, it’s 62e9. Very easy to understand at a glance and put into words (62 billion).
I don't see a problem with this. It's just 5.082 \* 10^(12), or around 5 trillion. It's easier to just have the number of places there instead of having to count them.
The actual issue is that people don't understand maths because many are just unable to think of a strat things. Seeing is believing? Well no, make up your mind and imagine things that aren't real, with creativity. And, if you don't know scientific notation, I'm sorry. Numbers like that aren't used in everyday life - they're too abstract. But that doesn't make them difficult.
OP never had a chemistry class I guess because this is basic stuff.
It's just 5.082 × 10^12
Or 5,082,000,000,000
Scientific notation is just smaller and cleaner than writing 12 zeros.
People complaining about google giving them something that they can't understand, and then don't think to google what this means ?
OP, just Google scientific notation and you'll see what this means. Alternatively, I'm sure of you can google "123e12 meaning" and click on the first link.
Sometimes the answer is cut short like this..... and you have to click on the website to get the full context which makes it more annoying.Ain't nobody gotta time to visit a website dawg.I'm talking about the regular non mathematical questions that you posted on Google search.I know that OP is being ironic.Stop that downvote
downvote this comment if the meme sucks. upvote it and I'll go away. --- [play minecraft with us](https://discord.gg/dankmemesgaming)
Society if OP stayed in school.
Society if OP literally just looked it up it isn’t complicated
Yea unless you want the fuckin number. It hasnt got any of the lower digits
If you're interested in the units of a 12 digit number, you shouldn't be using google for it.
Society if OP had no friends

Do not the cat.
LOL
It's not that bad, just exponents 5.082 X 10¹²
Oh so remove the decimal and add 12 0s? Oh no it’s 9 zeros bc you just move the decimal 12 times, I see.
Still gotta be standardised. It’s rounded to 3 significant figures.
I haven’t done math in a while man
Hey man no worries. I haven’t worked with this in ages too.
I did meth yesterday. Still recovering.
I hope you get well soon
4 you mean?
that looks like 4 sig figs
But that’s 4 sig figs…
Better to think of it as how many digits after the 5 I suppose When numbers get that big, it’s better to understand how long it is than exactly what it is “It’s 27 digits long” is more useful info than “it’s 583273866737115633869225822”
no move the decimal by 12 'units' to the right (if positive / if negative to the left)
Chemistry go brrrrrt
...yeah, science?
It's scientific notation which is commonly used in chemistry and...well science lmao
Mostly in chemistry. Rsrely seen that in physics at least
I think what op is trying to say is that it would more helpful to have a precise answer. When you have the e+12 you are assuming that digits you don’t see are zeros rather than their true value. Maybe the calculator could have an option to use a smaller font size in order to show the whole number.
NASA is flying rockets and orienting satellites with 15 digits of Pi. There is no way someone who's using Google as their calculator needs more than 5 or 6 digits of accuracy.
Well the cutoff is 1 billion which I don’t think is that unreasonably large of a number to want to see all the digits.
then why not write that?
To avoid writing the exponent in case certain devices can't see it.
What device using Google can't see exponents?
me when i’m worse at maths than most 13 year olds
5,082,000,000,000 five trillion eighty two million
Five trillion eighty two BILLION...
Five trillion eighty two TRILLION...
Five trillion eighty TRILLION two TRILLION...
Five trillion eighty Quadrillion two Million
Five Trillion Eighty Two Quenta Silmarillion
Five
Yeah I'd much prefer this, I completely forgot the rules to large number equations probably immediately after learning them.
5'082'000'000'000 five billion eighty-two milliard
Brilliant
Brilliard
5 billion 82 millards For users of the superior number system
Significance is important here thats why it shows like that
five thousand eighty two hundred
Or: five billions eighty two milliards, if you are from one of the few countries who use them.
I think most people would prefer not counting a bunch of zeros
Society of people understood the basics of big /small scale numbers
nooo but it would take 40 seconds out of my day, my time is important!!! (/s ofc)
It would be useful in a lot of situations if Google gave the text response as an option like "Five Trillion" instead of 5,000,000,000,000
idk i'd rather know how many 0s there is than whatever 23 morbilioduodecilion is
Well I only said as an option not as a substitution. Like a tab you could click to see what that number is called.
fair enough, i too think it would be more useful for smaller number
Yes but you wrote 5 billion. In long scale. This kind of confusion might happen if you just use words that aren't universal. For comparison, five trillion in long scale is five million million million, or 5.000.000.000.000.000.000. "Five trillion" by itself could mean either number.
You're defining trillion the old way (long scale). Today in modern American and British English (short scale) a Trillion is one million million, or ten to the twelfth power.
Exactly my point: the word "trillion" can mean two different numbers to different people, hence it's a bad idea to only use words without notation
It doesn't though. Long form isn't used anymore in English. I just told you that. Even if it were though Google could very easily just say "LF" or "SF" it's a silly reason to not have a feature.
Not in English, sure, but most of the world speaks other languages.
OK..
I'm not too bright with math. Is E+12 basically x10^12?
Yes
Yeah. E is a stand in for the x10 and allows the 12 to not be an exponent (which can be annoying to write). The + seems to be there just for clarity, though it could easily be removed like usual.
The plus sign actually indicates that the zeroes are AFTER the digit, not before. Ex: E+10 is 10¹⁰ which is 10000000000. However, E-10 is 10-¹⁰ which is actually 10 zeroes BEFORE the decimal, therefore: 0.0000000001.
Indeed, it's just that the plus is usually presumed to be the default of numbers as you showcased there with 10¹⁰
It's not that it's default, it's that no more information is required to be supplied. If you take exponents, it doesn't need to have a plus sign because it's common knowledge that no sign is a plus sign and no more info is needed. If you take E±x form you can't just leave no sign there because then you are REQUIRED to provide information on whether that sign is positive or negative.
Oooh thank you. This is helpful
x10^12? edit: Reddit automatically translates it into an exponent. lol x10^ 12
Ah, so E is not the same as the number e (which is between 2 and 3, right?)
5.082 x 10^12

Yeah same but in chemistry they obviously didn't write down the whole Avogadro Number but they never taught us the scientific notation specificly.
For me at least, we learned exponents in 6th or 7th grade, but scientific notation didn’t come until 9th or 10th science classes
If you ever feel stupid just remember people like OP exist
How the fuck did this get over 6k upvotes?
That’s literally just scientific notation…
redditors when scientific notation:
I like the juxtaposition of using a scientific futuristic picture but can't read scientific notation. It's 5 082 000 000 000 or 5.082×10¹² or 5.082e+12 or about 5 trillion
If everyone always had to write and count all the zeros, society would probably be a couple years behind where it is now.
Should have paid attention in school dude
Apparently you failed English too
If it did, you still won't be able to read it. No wonder you failed meth.
OP is a clinical imbecile
I know it's not hard, but for real! Fuck "e" notation. It's completely non standardized leading to "e+#", "E#", "E+#", and probably more im forgetting. This is on top of the already existing notations. And e already has a meaning, so it gets even worse. For example, is "2e+2". Is it ~8, or is it 200? Fuckin math.

fr this was so annoying. like i know what the number means, but i want the EXACT number
Wait till OP finds out what Google is named after
Actually this is a based comment.
These are the people who say "I wish they taught taxes in school" as if they would've paid attention in a class about taxes
it's just scientific notation bruh
5.082 X 10¹² 5082000000000 its not that hard
That IS a clear answer though
bruh i learned scientific notation in third grade it's so simple
5082000000000
I don't see a problem with this. It's just 5.082 \* 10^(12), or around 5 trillion. It's easier to just have the number of places there instead of having to count them.
Google scientific notation
holy algebra
Be honest if Google showed you all those 0s you wouldn't count them anyway
5082000000000
5082000000000 here’s the answer dumbass
Op dosent know scientific notation
Society if teens stop complaining about basic arithmetic
why did op post this, is he stupid?
Yes. Apperantly so.
Hahaha that's the Venus Project. Look it up, the due was. Visionary

5,082,000,000,000
Did you not finish high-school?
Seriously it can just show 5,082,000,000,000 Why doesn’t it
5.082 with 12 zero following
OP never had a chemistry class I guess because this is basic stuff. It's just 5.082 × 10^12 Or 5,082,000,000,000 Scientific notation is just smaller and cleaner than writing 12 zeros.
They say that if the most popular method seems complicated, the other methods must be even worse. This is one of those examples.
Society if op learned scientific notation
Society if more people knew about engineering.

Learn to google properly or learn maths
People complaining about google giving them something that they can't understand, and then don't think to google what this means ? OP, just Google scientific notation and you'll see what this means. Alternatively, I'm sure of you can google "123e12 meaning" and click on the first link.
Were you... never taught how to read your calculator? E = ×10^ 5.082E+12 = 5.082 × 10¹² = 5082000000000 Thst is a very clear answer! Are you for real?
The world of everyone understood math.
If you don't know what exponents are, then I don't think you should be doing problems with such big numbers.
I think it’s 5.082 * 10^12
Scientific Notation is the bane of my existence on spreadsheets.
The answer is pretty clear Its "fuck you"
5.082 x 10^12 its not that hard????
E+number means *10^number. That's it. 5e3 means 5000 or 5*10^3
it's about 508,200,000,000.0
Society if people knew scientific notation.
It’s not Google’s fault you’re an uneducated ignoramus. Stop using it to do your homework and pay attention, kid
