580 million or 0.58 billion
No. 1 billion = one thousand million, generally worldwide, in modern times. In Britain, it used to be one million million up to about the 1950s, so be careful if reading older British literature.
I am reading a dictionary. Comprehensible but not correct.
In Asia they already have one of these and a billion of people know how to use it 1 billion people in Asia are perfectly capable of reading and writing "Chinese Simplified". Then there's several million people in Macao Singapore, Taiwan that can read!
what is a correct compression reading for a 4.3 blazer
I recall reading that it would take you 3 weeks to count to a million if you counted all day, taking time off to eat and sleep. So to count to a billion would take 1000 times 3 weeks.
The term 'assigned reading,' in the context of school would be correct: a teacher could assign reading to a child. Any context where some sort of reading is assigned is correct.

There were two different numerical naming systems. One (the "short scale" system) had the ratio between successive new number names as 1000. The other (the "long scale" system) had it at 1,000,000. I guess it was reasonable (for people that used the long system) to say "thousand million" (10^9) and not feel like it needed a new name. So the next name (billion) wasn't used until the number that was a "million million" (10^12). Then you would have a thousand billion (10^15) and only a million billion (10^18) would be a "trillion." The short system (what everyone uses today) obviously preferred short names to long names and its advocates probably felt that "thousand million" was too wordy... so that became "one billion" Thanks for Reading
