En français, il convient d'utiliser une puissance de 10. Par exemple, on écrira «9 parties pour cent millions» comme suit : 9 p.p. 108, ou 9 X 10-8, ou encore 9 p/108. On aura compris que, dans l'expression «partie par 10 à la puissance 8», le mot «partie» ne fait que prendre la place du chiffre «x» qui exprime le nombre de particules en cause. 1, record 1, French, - partie%20pour%20cent%20millions
