lili is correct.\n\nthere is a difference in the figure billion in the UK and the USA. \n\nMilliard is a term (don't listen to those who think it is your typo) that is equivalent to one Billion in the American system\n\n\nhave a look here \nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_and_short_scales

1 millimeter = 0.0393700787 inch\nor \n1 inch = 25.4 millimeters

Her real name wouldn't be Millicent, would it? M (short for milli) and cent = 100.\n\nJust a thought. People choose IDs for odd reasons.

1 trillion is 1x10 to the 12th. power and 1 billion is 1x10 to the ninth power, so to do the math, you multiply them by each other by adding their exponents, so you get 1x10 to the 21st. power or a 1 followed by 21 zeros or\n\nOne Sextillion or a 1 with 21 zeros following it or:\n1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000\n\nSo both answers are the same.\n\nNow if you do the same for the other number, you have 1x10 to the ninth power times 1x10 to the 12th power which is 1x10 to the 21st. power.  I am not using the regular superscript numbers for the exponents because I don't have them on my computer.but it still adds up to one sextillion or:\n\n1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

It's kida hard to explain comprehensively in 1000 characters or less, so the next best thing I can do right now is put a link to a website that explains the  diferences in layman's term in the source below.\nHope that helps you out.

I cannot comprehend a trillion.  Did you know that you could not count to a billion if you started at birth and lived to be 50?  And a trillion is 1,000 billion.

1000 million is in 1 billion. therefore, is 0.001 billion in 1 million.

On the American (short) scale, a trillion is 10^12 and a billion is 10^9. So the answer is 1,000.\n\nOn the English (long) scale, a trillion is 10^18 and a billion is 10^12. So the answer is 1,000,000.\n\nBut if you were to ask how many English billions there are in an American trillion, the answer would be 1.

Micro is 10 to the -6 power and milli is 10 to the -3 power.  The difference is 3 and you are asking to go from the smaller to the larger increment, so move the decimal point 3 spaces to the left.\n\nAnswer is 6.889 millimeters

Typically ~20 micrometres (1/1000 milimetre = 1 micrometre).\nThat's of-course an average - it can be a lot bigger or a lot smaller.

The prefix "milli" means one thousandth.  This means one milliliter = 1/1000 liters or\n\n1000 milliliters = 1 liter

Do you mean in Australia?  I think Australia uses 1 billion = 1 million million.\n\nThe system used in many countries (like Great Britain, France, and Germany) is different than the U.S. In these countries, a billion (bi meaning two) has twice as many zeros as a million, and a trillion (tri meaning three) has three times as many zeros as a million, etc.\n\nIn the U.S.\n1 billion = 1 thousand million (1,000,000,000)\n\nIn other countries:\n1 billion = 1 million million (1,000,000,000,000)

The answer to your question is "it depends on where you are."\n\nIn the USA, One Billion is equal to 1000 Million -- that is it is 1,000,000,000.\n\nHowever, in some countries, a Billion is equal to a million million -- 1,000,000,000,000.  \n\nThat means that in those countries a Billion is equal to a thousand US Billions -- which is called a Trillion in the US.

1,000,000 = 1 million\n1,000,000,000 = 1 billion\n\n1 billion = 1,000 million

1 millimeter = 0.1 centimeters\n\nor\n\n1 centimeter = 10 millimeters
