What are the periods in the Precambrian era?
Aria Murphy 
The Precambrian is usually considered to have three eons: the Hadean, the Archean and the Proterozoic. Some scientists recognize a fourth eon, which they call the Chaotian, which predates the others and is the time of the first formation of our solar system.

What was 1 billion years ago?
The period of Earth’s history that began 2.5 billion years ago and ended 542.0 million years ago is known as the Proterozoic, which is subdivided into three eras: the Paleoproterozoic (2.5 to 1.6 billion years ago), Mesoproterozoic (1.6 to 1 billion years ago), and Neoproterozoic (1 billion to 542.0 million years ago).
What era do we live in?
Cenozoic era
Officially, we live in the Meghalayan age (which began 4,200 years ago) of the Holocene epoch. The Holocene falls in the Quaternary period (2.6m years ago) of the Cenozoic era (66m) in the Phanerozoic eon (541m).

How many millions, billions and trillions are there?
units; tens; 10 hundreds; 100 thousands; 1 000 millions; 1 000 000 billions; 1 000 000 000 trillions; 1 000 000 000 000 ( to save some typing I am going to write 10^3 to mean 10x10x10=1 000, 10^4 = 10x10x10x10 = 10 000 and so on so a trillion is 10^12)

How long did it take to get to 1 billion dollars?
There’s one more thing our race to $1 billion can teach us, and it’s the importance of time. Recall that it took us 84 years to reach the magic billion. Imagine if instead we invested for just 83 years.
