7 years ago Actually, while we are looking at this page, can we improve on this line too? Use a word for people or animals upwards from 1 million, for example 22.3 million.
Maybe my brain is running slow, but why are we specifying animals here? We would usually write 1 million widgets wouldn't we so why specify only for people and animals? @libbyv

7 years ago Agree. It's confusing.
How about this?
Use the word 'million' instead of digits for anything above 1 million eg 22.3 million Australians
?

7 years ago Do we even need the extra example? ie
Use the word million instead of digits for 1 million and upwards.
**For example**
> - 1 to 9, not one to nine
> - 10 to 9999
> - 10,000 to 1 millionHey @libbyv sorry last set of changes to look at.
