According to the Kośa, where numbers increase tenfold at each step, if calculated according to the lesser numerical scale of this country, it corresponds to one gōu; if calculated according to the medium numerical scale of astronomical mathematics where numbers increase by myriad-myriads [hundred millions], a nayuta corresponds to one thousand billion [100,000,000,000] in this country).
