michaelg@julian.uwo.ca (Michael Glenn) asks:

   What is the largest digit with a name? 

   eg: million, billion, quadrillion, etc...

   Can you also include the numerical value

   eg: 1000 or 100 000  or 1 X 10^4 etc...

The set of digits is {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}.  So the largest
digit with a name is 9.
