What percent is 140 million of 1.1 trillion?

Answer 1

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

140 million ÷ 1.1 trillion x 100 % = (140 x 106) ÷ (1.1 x (106)3) x 100 %

= 1400/11 x 106 - (6 x 3) + 2 %

= 127.27... x 10-10 %

≈ 1.27 x 10-8 %

= 0.0000000127 %

• In those countries that use the short scale (based on powers of a thousand plus one) like USA:

140 million ÷ 1.1 trillion x 100 % = (140 x 106) ÷ (1.1 x (103)3+1) x 100 %

= 1400/11 x 106 - (3 x 4) + 2 %

= 127.27... x 10-4 %

≈ 1.27 x 10-2 %

= 0.0127 %
