2k means 2, 000 because k means a thousand. 2 times 1, 000 is equal to 2 thousand...

The abbreviation, K, comes from the Greek " χίλιοι " ("khilioi"), KILO, which means thousand.

So,
* one kilogram is 1,000 grams
* one kilometer is 1,000 meters
* one kilowatt is 1,000 watts
* one kilojoule is 1,000 joules
* one K is one thousand dollars, or $1,000

So, if a guitar is "two K" that means it costs two thousand dollars. Five K would be five thousand dollars, and so on. Hope this helps.

There are lots of other abbreviations for money. Fin, c note, etc. Check out this link for some other money references:

Good luck!

1K= 1000 always. Mostly referred to USD.

K in fact stands for KILO primarily. In Metric system Kilo means 1000.

for Example,

1 Kilogram or 1 Kg = 1000 Gram or 1000 g
1 Kilometre or 1 KM = 1000 meters or 1000 M.............. similarly others.

Gradually K came to represent the term 1000.
Just like Y2K means Year 2000 AD.
Even in Computers 1 KB= approximately 1000 Bites (1064 Bytes to be accurate)


alanaim
1k = $1,000

That's a seriously expensive guitar.

K = l,000, so 5k is 5,000$

A K usually refers to a thousand. 5K equals $5,000. A 5K run is a five kilometre run (5,000 metres).
