Definition
九千七百万 means 'ninety-seven million' — it's a number, not a measure word. The POS label 'm' (measure word) is incorrect; this is a numeral. In Chinese, large numbers are grouped by ten-thousands (万), so 九千七百万 breaks down as 九千 (nine thousand) × 万 (ten thousand) + 七百万 (seven million), totaling 97,000,000. You'll see it in population figures, budgets, and statistics.
m
