- Georgelemental 4y agoCommas instead of decimals in numbers is the standard in Europe
- tobltobs 4y agoNot true for Ireland, Malta, Switzerland and United Kingdom.
- 7steps2much 4y agoIn Austria at least we only use the comma for the fraction part of a number. So we would write ten million and 75 cents as: 10.000.000,75 F.e.
- 2143 4y agoYes I'm aware :)

- 2143 4y agoThanks! That page has a graph. Blue (.) seems to be preferred by most (not all) commonwealth nations. There seems to be a lot more green (,) areas, but the 3 largest countries by population — China, India, and USA — are blue. Somewhat surprised to see Mexico using dot instead of comma.
