1 millimetre? Who measures Searches Per Day in millimetres?
I read it the same.
M = 1'000 in Roman. So MM is a million.
As noted in another comment; MM is 2000 in roman numerals.
Never heard of such a notation before. Probably only used in the US where people don't use mm.
MM is a million. mm is a millimetre.
In the metric system,
1 mm = 0.001 m = 0.001 metres
but
1 MM = 1000000 M = 1000000 ?????
As somebody else pointed out, MM is two thousand, not a million.
MM, correct or not, is finance lingo for million (1000*1000).
