India invested in factory working to get quantity of money? (7)
I believe the answer is:
million
'quantity of money?' is the definition.
(eg a million pounds)
'india invested in factory working' is the wordplay.
'india' becomes 'i' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'invested in' indicates putting letters inside.
'factory' becomes 'mill' (mill is a type of factory).
'working' becomes 'on' (on can mean working or activated).
'mill'+'on'='millon'
'i' placed within 'millon' is 'MILLION'.
'to get' is the link.
(Other definitions for million that I've seen before include "What mega means" , "One followed by six zeros" , "Ten to the power of six" , "fortune!" , "A power of 1 Down" .)
