Convert number and word combinations into numbers only. This calculator converts a number word phrase such as 2.75 million into its numerical equivalent. The number word phrase 2.75 million converts to numbers in standard notation as 2,750,000 and also scientific notation as 2.75 x 10 6 .
Standard notation of a number is when a number is written with only number digits. This is the typical way to write numbers since words are not used in standard number notation. You may see standard notation numbers with thousand separators (commas) and decimal indicators (periods), but not with words like "trillions" or "hundredths."
Number and word notation is usually used when exact figures are not required but the magnitiude of a value is important in explaining a point or story.
Converting from number word form to standard number notation:
16.76 trillion = 16.76 x 10 12 = 16,760,000,000,000
If you need to say the number 16,760,000,000,000 you would say, "sixteen trillion, seven hundred sixty billion."
Converting from number word form to standard number notation:
4 millionths = 4 x 10 -6 = 0.000004
If you need to say the number 0.000004 you would simply say "four millionths."
Converting from number word form:
2 millionths = 2 x 10 -6
1 billionth = 1 x 10 -9
2 Millionths of 1 Billionth
= 2 x 10 -6 * 1 x 10 -9
= (2 * 1) x 10 (-6 + -9) = 2 x 10 -15 seconds.
"Standard form" is typically used in England and Great Britain to refer to the scientific number notation that the US calls "scientific notation." Standard form and scientific notation are essentially the same way to refer to the notation used to represent very large or very small numbers such as 4.959 × 10 12 or 1.66 × 10 -24 .
Use the Decimal and Integer Calculator to do common math or math on very large or very small numbers using E notation inputs.
