The prefix M above units stands for thousands. The prefix MM above units stands for millions.
- MCF is thousands of cubic feet (103 ft3).
- MMCF is millions of cubic feet (106ft3).
- MBTU is thousands of BTU (103 BTU).
- MMBTU is millions of BTU (106 BTU).
- M in metric and SI unit sets stands for millions (106 ).
Be aware that 'M' in Metric and SI units represents a different quanitiy to that stated above.
