What is a billion?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
A billion is a very large number: 1,000,000,000.<|im_end|>

Is it hard to estimate large numbers like that?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, it can be. One way to help is to break them down into smaller parts or use real-life examples for comparison.<|im_end|>

Like what?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
For example, if you imagine a big stadium with 50,000 seats, a billion would be like filling that stadium 20,000 times.<|im_end|>
