Explanation in English from Ācārya Pūjyapāda’s Sarvārthasiddhi:

‘Respectively’ is supplied. With regard to these regions one, three, etc., sāgaropama are taken respectively. In Ratnaprabhā, the maximum lifetime is one sāgaropama, in Śarkarāprabhā three, in Vālukāprabhā seven, in Paṅkaprabhā ten, in Dhūmaprabhā seventeen, in Tamaḥ- prabhā twenty-two, and in Mahātamaḥprabhā thirty-three sāgaro- pama. ‘Parā’ means maximum, ‘sattvānām’–of infernal beings–is intended to make clear that these lifetimes pertain to the infernal beings and not to the regions (earths).
