1 dot.

If each dot was a pea, laid end to end, this would be the same scale of length as:

  • 1 pea
1 Dot

Next: 10 dots



10 dots = 1 x 10.

If each dot was a pea, laid end to end, this would be the same scale of length as:

  • 10 peas
  • a battery
  • a grapefruit
1 Dot - 11 Dot - 21 Dot - 31 Dot - 41 Dot - 51 Dot - 61 Dot - 71 Dot - 81 Dot - 91 Dot - 10

Next: 100 dots



100 dots = 10 x 10.

If each dot was a pea, laid end to end, this would be the same scale of length as:

  • 5 bananas
  • an umbrella
  • a penguin
100 Dots

Next: 1,000 dots



1,000 dots = 10 x 10, ten times.

If each dot was a pea, laid end to end, this would be the same scale of length as:

  • a london bus
  • a giraffe
  • a new long jump world record
100 Dots - 1100 Dots - 2100 Dots - 3100 Dots - 4100 Dots - 5100 Dots - 6100 Dots - 7100 Dots - 8100 Dots - 9100 Dots - 10

Next: 10,000 dots



10,000 dots = 10 x 10, 10 x 10 times.

If each dot was a pea, laid end to end, this would be the same scale of length as:

  • a football field
  • a yacht
  • a blue whale
10,000 Dots

Next: 100,000 dots



100,000 dots = 10,000, ten times.

If each dot was a pea, laid end to end, this would be the same scale of length as:

  • the Burj Khalifa
  • the Sydney Harbour Bridge
  • a runway
10,000 Dots - 110,000 Dots - 210,000 Dots - 310,000 Dots - 410,000 Dots - 510,000 Dots - 610,000 Dots - 710,000 Dots - 810,000 Dots - 910,000 Dots - 10

Next: 1,000,000 dots



1,000,000 dots = 10,000, one hundred times.

If each dot was a pea, laid end to end, this would be the same scale of length as:

  • a 10k run
  • Mount Everest
  • Themisto, a moon of Jupiter

What about a billion dots?



1,000,000,000 dots = 1,000,000, one thousand times.

A billion dots is far too large to show here.

  • The peas would stretch from London to Tokyo.
  • On my computer screen this section would take me well over an hour to scroll using my mouse wheel.
  • A million seconds is around 11 days, but a billion seconds is over 31 years.
  • However, it takes around 5 hours for the world to take a billion photos, and only 5 minutes to send a billion emails! Perhaps a billion isn't all that large after all!
