We now have a new largest number - 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 - better known as ‘quetta’

With the world now churning out so much data, the current number system just simply cannot cope. To combat this, and to avoid problems in the future the metric system has now been updated.

With the update of the metric system, a new number, ‘quetta’ has been revealed as the largest number. In short, it has a whopping 30 0’s after the one. To put that into context, there are just nine 0’s in a billion.
