It is formed on a pattern starting with a ]: a million (1,000,000) has three zeroes more than a thousand (1,000); a billion (1,000,000,000) has two groups of three zeroes more than a thousand, and so on. A centillion has one hundred groups of three zeroes more than a thousand.

* A centillion is a thousand times more than a ].
* A centillion is a thousandth of an ].

A centillion in the short-scale system is equivalent to a ], or a thousand ], in the long-scale system.

== Long scale ==
In long scale usage, one centillion is '''10<sup>600</sup>''', which is equal to (10<sup>6</sup>)<sup>100</sup>; that is, it is the number with a hundred times as many zeroes as a million.

* A centillion is a thousand times more than a ].
* A centillion is a thousandth of a ].
* A centillion is a million times more than a ].
* A centillion is a millionth of an ].
