# Large Number Symbols

By default, Soulver uses [SI-inspired](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_prefix) large number symbols when displaying large answers:

```
100,000 + 200,000 | 300k
3 million + 10%   | 3.3M
```

If you don't like this feature you can disable it for all lines (see [Answer Formatting](/documentation/formatting/answer-formatting-options.md)), or on a line-by-line bases in the contextual menu on a line.

{% hint style="success" %}
We think this feature makes working with large numbers easier because you don't need to count zeros to immediately know the magnitude of the number you're working with.
{% endhint %}

### Notation symbols for large numbers

You can also use large number symbols in your math expressions to make working with large numbers easier.

Numbers with currency symbols ($, €, £, etc) also support additional large number notation symbols.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="General" %}

| Symbol       | Value    | Example |
| ------------ | -------- | ------- |
| k            | thousand | 2.5k    |
| M            | million  | 5M      |
| G            | billion  | 10G     |
| T            | trillion | 20T     |
| {% endtab %} |          |         |

{% tab title="Currencies" %}

| Symbol        | Value    | Example           |
| ------------- | -------- | ----------------- |
| k or K        | thousand | $3k, $4K          |
| m or M        | million  | $5m, €6M          |
| B, b or bn    | billion  | $7B, ¥8b, $9bn    |

| {% endtab %}  |          |                   |
| {% endtabs %} |          |                   |

### Scientific Notation

If you'd like to see a number in scientific notation instead of large number notation, use "as sci"
