jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
start with 135,000,000,000,000
and place a decimal point between the first two nonzero digits, so between 1 and 3
we get
1.35,000,000,000,000
now drop every 0 after the 5 to get
1.35

yes it is, because you move the decimal point 14 times to the right to go from 1.35 to get back to 135,000,000,000,000
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
this number 135,000,000,000,000 is the number 135 trillion
