What is the symbol for trillion?
I am assuming you mean what's the SI prefix for measurements in the trillions. 1 trillion = 1000 billion = 1000000 thousand = 1000000000 = 10 ^ 9 You can search online fairly easily to figure out: 1000 = 10 ^3 symbol: k 1000000 = 10 ^ 6 symbol: M (mega) 1000000000 = 10 ^ 9 symbol: G (giga) Also, Megatron is actually 1000000tron
What does the prefix 'sub' mean as in the word subscribe?
its not a prefix in that word...
What does G standfor and the equivalent?
Not sure what you mean, but the best guess I can make is: What does the G in Gm, Gg, etc mean - ie as a prefix to a unit. In this case it is a prefix of Giga- which means multiply the unit by 109 which is the same as 1,000,000,000: 1 Gm = 1 Gigametre = 1,000,000,000 m 1 Gg = 1 Gigagram = 1,000,000,000 g = 1,000,000 kg = 1,000 Mg = 1,000 tonnes = 1 Kilo-tonne etc.
