Sorry for the stupid question, but need to express the above figure in Japanese.
Would
間５０万米
be correct? (I have reported a bit of a sentence)
I apologise as I don't know any Japanese at all (as you will have guessed:)

万 ＝ １０，０００, so 50万 ＝ ５００，０００
It took me ages to get my head round it！

Note from asker:
| Hi there, so the symbol 万 is correct... My client was saying it meant 50 million... |
| Ah... this is what I though. The same as in Korean and Hindi (that I know of:) |
Discussion
If you try on Google Translator 万 is translated with 10,000, but 50万 becomes 50 million:):)
..., 最高で年間５０万米ドルを節約できると推定されている
(I didn't write it)
My client says it says 50 million, not 500,000.
is he right or wrong, so I can leave the sentence as is?
