So how many noughts ARE there in £100 billion?< A billion is 1,000,000,000 (one thousand million) - there is an archaic British/European meaning of a billion as one million million, but that isn't used in the real world (at least not in English). My earlier post said the same. £100 billion is, therefore, £100,000,000,000. |
