Bluebulb Projects' The Measure of Things presents:
25,000 is about 90 times the number of Words in the Gettysburg Address.
In other words, it's 91.90 times the count of Words in the Gettysburg Address, and the count of Words in the Gettysburg Address is 0.0109 times that amount.

Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, delivered November 19, 1863, at the postwar dedication of the Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, lasted just over two minutes and contained an estimated (the exact wording of the original speech is disputed) 272 words. Lincoln wrote five (5) drafts of the speech, which are known today by the last names of the original recipients.
