K means thousands. 2K7 is another way of saying 2.7K and means two thousand seven hundred, or 2,700 ohms This method of component value indication is used because it is too easy to miss the decimal place, especially on small components or small font size in a schematic. Technicians may accidentally read 27K instead of 2.7K.
