English term or phrase: Question about numbers
Dear colleagues, I am currently coordinating a multilingual project. One of the language combinations is English > Russian.

I am having a doubt about how to localize numbers correctly.

1 USD (1 dollar)
10 USD (10 dollars)
10.99 USD (ten dollars and ninety nine cents)
1,000 USD (one thousand dollars)
10,000 USD (ten thousand dollars)
100,000 USD (hundred thousand dollars)
1,000,000 USD (one million dollars)

How would you write those numbers correctly in Russian?

Many thanks in advance!

question about numbers
USD


Explanation:
The use of "USD" is also acceptable in Russian, especially if the context is financial, and data is presented in the form of tables or brief summaries. However, it is necessary to use comma to separate decimals and space to separate thousands starting from 10,000. Examples below:

1 USD
10 USD
10,99 USD
1000 USD
10 000 USD
100 000 USD
1 000 000 USD
