As Easy as A. B. C.
The math teacher Mr. Menon was not feeling well, so he asked the class to find out four numbers, a number in the spellings of English counting which has "A" in it, a number which has "B", a number which has C, and a number which has D in it.
The students were, sure busy for the whole period. What would you say ?

A ... EI ght
B ... BI llion
C ... ZI llion(?)
D ... (??)
mister know-it-all,
first for "D" is thousanD not quadrillion
and first for "Z" does exist. you used it 3 other times in your post(s). how about Zero? think that'll work?
Anon. first D is 'one hundred'
mr. know it all, first W is 'two'.
And, (hehe) first for X is six.
First for N is one.
First for U is four.
First for V is five, and first for G is eight. Other than all those, it looks fine.
First for G is eight and first for V is five. Other than all those it looks fine.
the first number with a k is a kajillion
no seriously does anyone know about k?
Well...
The 1st number with "a" would be 1000 (thousand).
1st number with b would be billion
1st number with c would be cinquillion (1000000000000000000)
1st with d would be decillion
NOT HUNDRED! IT SAYS ONE D!!!!!!!
No, it doesn't and the first number spelt with an a would be one hundred and one.
It says 'has D in it', not 'has one D in it'.
If you said that cookies had sugar crystal in them, does that mean they have one sugar crystal in them?
Hundred 'has D in it'.
Oh, and the 'and' is not part of the number.
10^0 One
10^1 Ten
10^2 Hundred
10^3 Thousand
10^6 Million
10^9 Billion
10^12 Trillion
10^15 Quadrillion
10^18 Quintillion - This is your cinquillion
10^21 Sextillion
10^24 Septillion
10^27 Octillion
10^30 Nonillion
10^33 Decillion
10^36 Undecillion
10^39 Duodecillion
10^42 Tredecillion
10^45 Quattuordecillion
10^48 Quindecillion
10^51 Sexdecillion
10^54 Septendecillion
10^57 Octodecillion
10^60 Novemdecillion
10^63 Vigintillion
I think that's enough. These are the ENGLISH spellings of large numbers.

Mr. Know it All, you need to consider a name change.....
The first D is one hunDred
The first G is eiGht (way off!)

The first U is foUr (again, way off!)
The first V is in fiVe (close, but still wrong)
The first W is in tWo (also close, also wrong)
The first X is in siX (way off!)
