1. Always start from right.

International numeric words for numbers

The words lakh and Crore are Hindi numeric units but they are equally famous all around the world similarly million and billions are the units that are used internationally. The alternative words are

1. Lakh = Hundred thousand
2. Ten lakh = Million
3. Crore = Ten Million
4. Ten Crore = Hundred Million

In the international number system, a new word is introduced after three places from thousand onwards. Like 

• 1000 is one thousand (1st place)
• 10,000 is ten thousand (2nd place)
• 100,1000 is a hundred thousand. (3rd place)

Now, a new word will be used for the digit places after a hundred thousand.

• 1,000,000 is one million (1st place)
• 10,000,000 is ten million (2nd place)
• 100,000,000 is a hundred million (3rd place)

The new word is billion (10⁹) and after that trillion (10¹²), quadrillion (10¹⁵), and quintillion (10¹⁵) respectively.
