There were two different numerical naming systems. One (the "short scale" system) had the ratio between successive new number names as 1000. The other (the "long scale" system) had it at 1,000,000.
I guess it was reasonable (for people that used the long system) to say "thousand million" (10^9) and not feel like it needed a new name. So the next name (billion) wasn't used until the number that was a "million million" (10^12). Then you would have a thousand billion (10^15) and only a million billion (10^18) would be a "trillion."
The short system (what everyone uses today) obviously preferred short names to long names and its advocates probably felt that "thousand million" was too wordy... so that became "one billion"
Thanks for Reading
2% of 1 billion = 1 billion * 2/100 = 20 million dollars.
1 billion = 1,000 million 1/2 billion = 500 million
1 trillion = 1000 billion so 0.2 trillion = 200 billion.
2 1/2
0.002
1 billion is half of 2 billion.
1
1 billion = 1,000,000,000,000 1 million = 1,000,000,000 .2 billion* = 200,000,000,000 Therefore .2 billion = 200 million *To get .2 billion just write out 2 billion then take out one zero.
half of 1 billion is five hundred million. 1 billion halfs would be five hundred million. n / 2 = 1 billion, n = 2 billion
2% of 1 billion = 1 billion * 2/100 = 20 million dollars.
1 billion and 1 significant figures, 1 billion and 2 characters.
1 billion = 1,000 million 1/2 billion = 500 million
Between 1.5 and 2 billion people are Christian. This leaves (out of 7 billion) 5 to 5.5 billion people being something else.

200 crore Rupees 1 Million -10 Lakhs 1 Billion - 100 crore

1 + 1 is certainly equal to 2, unless you use some nonstandard definitions.
