One thousand millions make one billion. Think about it...when you get to 999,999,999 - the next whole number is 1,000,000,000 - one billion.

Using the American system, there are One thousand millions in one Billion. There is an old European system which says that a billion is in fact 1 million millions, this is supposed to be the standard in the UK. Regardless of this though, if you're speaking English almost everyone who hears the word Billion would assume it was 1000,000,000 and not 1,000,000,000,000, the Engish have adoptd the US system because it's more convenient.

Well lets see there are 6 zeros in a million and 9 zeros in a billion, so; 9 zeros minus 6 zeros is 3 zeros, and there are 3 zeros in a thousand so I would say
1,000 x 1,000,000=1,000,000,000

If 10 people watch a car wreck and you ask for details, you'll get 10 different perspectives. That doesn't mean the car wreck didn't happen. It means, the person can only give their perspective on it. Ask any kid a question about life in general and you'll get funny answers. That's just how kids are. Everyone forms images in their head when they are told about something lol That's part of our nature. Take a psychology class. What you are describing is not considered imagination. Unless you want to say that is the main point we all work from. lol

1000 millions make a billion
1000 billions make a trillion
Hence, lets review the numbers:
1,000,000 = 1 million
1,000,000,000 = 1 billion
Don't listen to anyone else

in the USA a thouand million makes a billion, this has been adopted into all financial institutions too.
In England (except in financial situations) one billion is a million times a million

One thousand. If you just add the zeroes you can figure this out yourself. God our country really is math deficient isn't it? No wonder we're losing ground to everyone else. If we can't do it on a calculator we don't know how. 1,000,000 x 1,000= 1,000,000,000. Hope this helps. All hope is lost

1,000,000,000 is a billion.
1,000,000 is a million.
Therefore you need 1,000 million to have a billion.
