What is 2 million times 10 million?

Answer 1

2 million x 10 million = (2 x 106) x (10 x 106)

= 20 x 1012 (= 2 x 1013)

• In countries that use the long scale (based on powers of a million), eg Europe:

20 x 1012 = 20 billion

• In countries that use the short scale (based on powers of a thousand), eg USA:

20 x 1012 = 20 trillion
