In India, numbers are often represented in the lakh and crore notation. One lakh is 1,00,000 (One Hundred Thousand). Therefore ten lakhs are equal to one million. One crore is 1,00,00,000 (One Hundred Hundred Thousand) i.e ten millions. One arab is equal to 100 crores and one kharab is equal to 100 arabs.
