    Using British definitions I see. 1 billion is 1,000 million, and 1 trillion is 1,000 billion. If 1% of 1,000 is 10 then 1/3 of that would be 3.3333.

    3.33 x log 9 would be 3,333,333,333.333(repeating)

              345,000,000 US citizens
               X$1,000,000 per citizen
      ‐------------------------
      $345,000,000,000,000
      
      

      That’s trillions. The log should have been 6+6 for your math if both the money and population were in the millions.
