@MrDirkles Well to be fair, we do use 1,000 x 1,000,000 as one billion nowadays, since the seventies I think. However, when I say "we", myself and an awful lot more people stick to the traditional way so I will always call it one thousand million and refer to one billion as, one million times one million.

As you say we are both right. Peace.

@williamkanegateshead

If you are English you therefore use the si system and one billion is 1,000,000,000 or 1000 * 1,000,000. Some countries (foreign speaking/ non English countries) define the it as 1,000,000 * 1,000,000. So in a way we are both right. Have a good day :D

@MrDirkles Are you an American by any chance? One billion is and always will be, one million times one million!

@williamkanegateshead

Wrong!

1,000,000 x 1000 = 1,000,000,000 or one billion

Mike Oldfield? SKY? Hayzee Fantazi? That's a joke by the way, but I do wish Esso would answer this once and for all.
