always baffling to me that we have a different numbering system like i just saw a rb abt the spiders georg post needing to hit a million notes soon and i just. Forgot what a million is. bc the commas are placed differently
in the indian numbering system 1 million= 10 lakhs
and so it would be written like
10,00,000
in the western numbering system 1 million is written as 1,000,000
they’re the same number, just written differently. and yet i lose all comprehension when i see it written the western way 😭
#spiders georg#what do yall know abt crores#numbering systems#MATH?????#but also last year spotify india switched from showing the streams in the western format to the indian one and i became baffled again#bc i was used to reading it in millions on the app but now tht it was the indian system i lowkey gave up#bc no chart is updating saying x song got 10.5 lakh streams#they’re saying 1.5M streams#so my lack of comprehension can go both ways actually
