The number 20 has 2 digits.
20*10^18 has 2 + 18 = 20 digits.

20*10^18 ≠ 20^18
20^18 = 2^18 * 10^18 , using the property: a^n * b^n = (ab)^n
2^18 = 262144, which has 6 digits
every time we multiply this by 10 we increase the number of digits by 1
so 20^18 has 24 digits
oops!! I read the number wrong. I thought it was 20*10^18, but it is 20^18.
Sorry!!
