Hi everybody.

I'm a moron. I need you guys' help okay.


What is this number: 349,303.9 million. Is it 349 billion?

How about 1,652,655.1 million?

It's just data for a paper I'm writing.

Thanks

349, 303 is 349 thousand

and 1,652,655 is 1 million. Any number followed by 6 zeroes is a million.

:D

Did you see the "million" on the end of both numbers, or are you being sarcastic?

Do you see the million multiplier now that I bolded it? I think you are trying to be sarcastic but hard to tell on a message board :) I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything.

I was trying to be helpful. Telling him that the number was a trillion when it was clearly a million sounds like sarcasm to me, wise guy.

7th digit = million (1,000,000)
10th digit = billion (1,000,000,000) = million * 1,000
13th digit = trillion (1,000,000,000,000) = billion * 1,000
