Best Answer

$5,000 is the correct number figure, but not an abbreviation.


There are two abbreviations:


5 G's meaning 5 Grand, a term popular in the USA in the early to mid 20th C (Just watch any old gangster movie of the 1930's with Jimmy Cagney.)


$5K, using the scientific unit of the Kilo=thousand. Came into popularity in the last few decades, usually describing salaries or else, in real estate, the cost of a house.


Usually, 5 G's doesn't have the $ symbol, whereas $5K usually does.

No, 5k would be 5000. 500000 would be 500k.
