Hi, never sure about the rules regarding such amounts or what exactly to change and translate here, plus I know a billion in English is different to a billion in "Spanish". Could I have some suggestions for the above? Thanks

Para que no haya dudas, estamos hablando de "mil cien" millones de dólares. El "billion" inglés equivale a mil millones en España, así que para hacer la conversión multiplica siempre por mil. En este caso, 1,1 + 1.000 = 1.100. El billón español (un millón de millones) equivale al "trillion" inglés.

Perdona, en la fórmula el signo + debería ser de multiplicar:
1,1 x 1.000 = 1.100
