0.00000001 BTC = 1 satoshi
0.001 BTC = 1mBTC
0.000001 BTC = 1 Bit

So, there would be 100 million satoshis in a whole Bitcoin
1000 mBTCs in a whole BTC
and 100000 bits in a BTC.

It is a simple search on google. Anyway;

Predefined Values:
1 Satoshi   = 0.00000001 ฿
100,000 Satoshi   = 0.00100000 ฿
1,000,000 Satoshi   = 0.01000000 ฿
10,000,000 Satoshi   = 0.10000000 ฿
100,000,000 Satoshi   = 1.00000000 ฿

Satoshi is the smallest amount of bitcoin that can be currently transfered and sent. It is 0.00000001 of a BTC. :) :) :)

100,000,000 Satoshi   = 1.00000000 ฿

We can go as low for that units but we can only send it when we reached the lowest amount we can send which is 546 satoshi.

When I was a newbie I thought 1 BITCOIN is one satoshi it is later that I realize that there are so many unit on one bitcoin,newbies are surprise when you tell them that you will receive 100,000 satoshi they thought it could convert to million in dollars

By the way, was that Satoshi himself who decided to name 1/100,000,000 bitcoin as 1 satoshi? Who was the first person to use it?

no. No because satoshi is the smallest you can transfer at the moment. i don't know if they will change it soon.
