"K" for 1000 has become more generally popular that "M" for 1000. The K comes from measurement (kilo) whereas the M is the Roman numeral for 1000. However, in banking and business people still commonly use M for 1000 and MM for 1,000,000. This can be confusing because if you don't know that then you may assume 10M means 10 million rather than 10 thousand.
K=1,000 | Thousand M=1,000,000 | Million G=1,000,000,000 | Billion This is as far as my knowledge takes me, hope this helps!!
Technically, yes. One thousand can be abbreviated as 'k' so 1000k would be 1 million. 5k would be five thousand, 125k would be one hundred and twenty-five thousand and so on. However the symbol for one million is M so the number 1,000,000 would more appropriately be abbreviated as 1M.
K is short for Kilo and also for thousand, M is short of Mega and also for million, G is short for Giga and for billion, followed by: * Tera -- trillion * Peta -- quadrillion * Exa -- quintillion * Zetta -- sextillion ...and from there, you're on your own ;}
There are eight million/ten thousand = eight hundred.
MM means Millions in the business world... M means thousands. K is not typically used in finance. For example: $25MM would mean $25 Million where $25M would mean $25 Thousand. +++ That may be so in America, but not elsewhere. The use of M for 'Thousand' would be potentially very confusing for international trade, journalism or travel used to 'M' = Million whether counting currency units, people or physical dimensions. That use of M is reflected in the ISO-SI measurements system, and IS used to mean million in finance as well as, say, tonnes of goods, in Britain and Europe. East of the Atlantic - and no doubt West of the Pacific - $25M = $25 Million.
"k" means thousand "m" means million
K=1,000 | Thousand M=1,000,000 | Million G=1,000,000,000 | Billion This is as far as my knowledge takes me, hope this helps!!
Depends on what country you're in, BUT (small) k stands for kilo- (thousand) and M stands for mega- (million) M for a thousand was latin (Roman) numeral symbols and MM was 2000.
350000 kb equals 350 Mb (just divide by one thousand!) k = kilo = thousand M = Mega = million G = Giga = billion (thousand million) T = Tera = million billion
Use "K" to represent thousand, and "M" to represent million in dollar figures. For example, $5K means $5,000, while $5M means $5,000,000.
"M" = thousand (from Roman numerals) "MM" = thousand thousand = million
Yes ... "m" = million ... "k" = one thousand ... so ... 2,440,000 is larger than 150,000 ...

In Accounting, 'M' stands for 'thousand', and 'MM' stands for 'million' (thousand thousand).
the letter "K" is used to express thousand not "M"
Yes - a lot bigger. m means mega or million. k is kilo or thousand. 514 is 0.5mb
