What is the metric prefix for billionth?

Answer 1

The prefix for 1 billion is Giga. One billion Hertz is one gigahertz (GHz). So 2 billion is 2000 million which means 2 gigahertz (GHz) is 2000 megahertz (MHz).

1 GHz = 1000 kHz ll 3.525 MHz = 3525 kHz

Answer 2

• In countries that use the long scale (based on powers of a million) like Europe:

1 billionth = 10-12 = pico-

• In countries that use the short scale (based on powers of a thousand) like USA:

1 billionth = 10-9 = nano-

Answer 3
