How Many Number of Zeros in One Million

Introduction

The international number system differs from the Indian number system. Both systems are very different, whether it is the way of writing the numbers or the way of saying those numbers. In the Indian number system, we display thousands, lakhs, and crores. In the International number system, it is thousands, millions and billions. One million is nothing but a thousand. Numerically written as 1,000,000.

Count of zeros

When we say one million is one thousand thousand, or in simple terms, it is Ten Lacs.

One thousand has three zeros.

Thus, it has six zeros; if one million is one thousand thousand, it has six zeros.

The expanded form of one million

One million can be expanded in the following manner:

1. The International number system method:

\begin{array}{l}

1\times{thousand}\times \text { thousand}\\

= 1\times 1000 \times \times 1000 \\

=1,000,000\: million

\end{array}

2. The Indian number system method:

\begin{array}{l}

1\times \text {ten lakhs }+0 \times \text {lakhs}+0 \times \text {ten thousand}+0 \times \text {thousand}+0\times \text { hundred }+0 \times \text {tens }+0 \times \text {ones } \\

= 1\times 1000000+0 \times 100000 +0 \times 10000 +0 \times 1000+0 \times 100+0 \times 10+0 \times 1 \\

=10,00,000\: lakhs

\end{array}

We see that one million equals ten lakhs in the Indian number system.

1000000 million = 1000000 lakhs
