MN is not an abbreviation for millions.
"M" = thousand (from Roman numerals) "MM" = thousand thousand = million
In the U. S., "billion" means a thousand millions, so the answer is one-tenth. In Britian, "billion" means a million millions, so the answer is one-ten-thousandth.
It seems that it is simply "B", even if some media use "bn" If you look at the pattern. k means thousand; this comes from the SI prefix kilo: which means 1000 and is abbreviated with k. M means millions because the SI prefix for millions, Mega, is abbreviate M. The SI prefix for billion is Giga (abbreviated G) so I use G for billions In accounting, M is used for thousand from the roman numeral for Thousands. MM is used for a million which is one thousand squared. continuing on this pattern, MMM could be used for a billion which is a thousand cubed.
That means "several millions", so it isn't a very specific number.
