Yes.
Proof:
1 thousand = 10^3
1 billion = 10^9
15 thousand million = 15 x 10^3 x 10^6 = 15 x 10^9 (hint add the exponents)
15 billion = 15 x 10^9
15 x 10^9 = 15 x 10^9 = True!!

Orginal Answer:
Yes, 15 billion is equal to 15 thousand million.
15 billion = 15000000000
15 thousand million = 15000000000
thus 15 billion is equal to 15 thousand million
A million is universally 1 x 10^6, and a thousand is 1 x 10^3,so a thousand million million is 1 x 10^15 or 1,000,000,000,000,000.In the "short scale" used by the US, this is a thousand trillion or a "quadrillion."In the "long scale," where a billion is a million million, this is simply one thousand billion.

You should put the largest denomination first, so it should be 15 million, 17 thousand. The same order that it would be in written out with numerals: 15,017,000.
one thousand million=15 billion 1 billion/ 15 billion = 1/15= 0.0666
15 million 200 thousand. 15,200,000
15,018,000.
1,015,000
15 trillion
A million is universally 1 x 10^6, and a thousand is 1 x 10^3,so a thousand million million is 1 x 10^15 or 1,000,000,000,000,000.In the "short scale" used by the US, this is a thousand trillion or a "quadrillion."In the "long scale," where a billion is a million million, this is simply one thousand billion.
A quadrillion is equal to 10^15 This is equal to 1 million billions.
