This is short for 9.22... * 10^18 = 9.22 million million million.
You just need to shift the decimal point to the right 18 places.
But be aware, you may be missing some digits at the end (loss of precision).

That is an integer. Why do you ask?

It is approximately 2^63. In fact, if I evaluate 2**63 in Perl, I get
your number. Mathematically, 2^63 = 9223372036854775808.

Why should all these groups get spammed with the answer to your homework ?

What is it non-mathematically?

This could be the beginning of a very long thread. But I won't start it

Don't you know that this is a notation for
9.22337203685478 * 10^18
and don't you also know that that would be
9,223,372,036,854,780,000
although others have noticed that as this number is very close to
2^63, that is probably the exact number you want, which is
9,223,372,036,854,775,808
But then I suppose you never took FORTRAN or BASIC programming.

Is the scientific number notation system still part of the GCSE mathematics
course ? Originally it was on the intermediate level paper but later got
moved to the higher paper. I have a good feeling that most exam boards have
ditched it. Percentage errors have also been ditched in recent times and so
have indices.
DIAMOND Mark R.
package SPSS uses it several places in the printout. Students have often
report their results in assignments in this notation, having copied the
result of a calculation directly from the SPSS output. But on questioning
them, they have no idea of the meaning of what they have written!

using Maple or Mathematica) then as an integer it is
9,223,372,036,854,780,000
More likely trailing zeroes are beyond the accuracy of your package, and
therefore not real.

You may be referring to the largest integer that can be
represented as a 64-bit signed integer = 2^63 - 1 =
9223372036854775807.
