    Sir,

    I was wondering if it will be fine if I write the numbers in millions with 2 d.ps even if the figures in the question are given in thousands?

    Surely you would need 3 decimal places (not 2)?

    However I do not understand why you would want to do this. If the figures in the question are in thousands then use thousands in your answer.

    $1,000 is $0.001M.

    Marks are not deducted for rounding unless it is ridiculous rounding.

    However again, if the figures in the question are given in thousands than used thousands in the answer. I cannot understand why you would want to do different.
