I've never really understood about MM readouts for ohms.

I have here a Chinee-Sears digital MM (maybe $15 on sale) and a circuit that
should measure 450-550 ohms. I set the MM to 2k ohms, the MM reads
say .500.

Is it telling me it measures .5 x 2000 = 1000 ohms? If not, what?

Being as it's digital, shouldn't it report actual integer ohms? More
expensive MM's do this?

Thx,
Peetie

Would that be .5K ohms?
