1 dollar just nu 10,33kr men kan säga
10kr = 1 Dollar
10 miljoner kronor = 1 Miljon dollar
10 Miljard kronor = 1 Billion dollar
1 Biljon kronor = 100 Billion dollar
10 Biljoner kronor = 1 Trillion dollar
The old UK meaning of a billion was a million million, or one followed by twelve noughts (1,000,000,000,000).
The USA meaning of a billion is a thousand million, or one followed by nine noughts (1,000,000,000).
Increasingly in this country we are using the USA meaning of a billion for these big numbers, and a trillion for the old UK meaning of one followed by twelve noughts. The UK government has been using the American meaning of billion since 1974 for the numbers it gives out.
