Not "-41 teradollars."Code:1,000 = 1 thousand 1,000,000 = 1 million 1,000,000,000 = 1 billion 1,000,000,000,000 = 1 trillion $41,000,000,000,000 = 41 trillion. $41,400,000,000,000 = 41 trillion, 400 billion.
Using the standard Mega/Giga/Tera unit metrics (which he covered using both "million US dollars" and "megadollars."
Using the previously-established "megadollars" unit, he thus correctly uses "~41 teradollars." *
For the purpose of multiple units and conversions, I dare say his approach is fitting.
*note: It is difficult to notice, but I tried to bold the tilde (~). You used "-41" which would be read "negative 41 teradollars."
Look more closely at the source image.
Not "-41 teradollars."Code:$1,000 = 1.0 kilodollar $1,000,000 = 1.0 megadollar $1,000,000,000 = 1.0 gigadollar $1,000,000,000,000 = 1.0 teradollar $41,000,000,000,000 = 41.0 teradollars $41,400,000,000,000 = 41.4 teradollars
[edit]
Easier?
He used "-" in the image and did not use a tilde. That was the actual fail in the source image.
Oh, well :hmm:
I didn't get up close to the monitor, and for some reason it appeared to be a tilde (upon closer inspection, I see you are indeed correct).
However - you had to type ALL of that, only to point out the issue with it not being a tilde.
This is actually all moot. Let's take a closer look at the text that leads up to "-41."
It should NOT be a tilde, after all. It should be a hyphen (or a minus sign, or otherwise represent a negative value).
In this example, 1 Hitler represents a loss of 41 teradollars. Or, to be precise, as this is something that would surely bother you: a loss of 41.4 teradollars.
This can also be written as thus: 1 Hitler = -41 teradollars.
