2 When you say or write in words a number over 100, you put 'and' before the number expressed by the last two figures. Example: 203: two hundred and three. 2840: two thousand, eight hundred and forty. Four hundred and eighteen men were killed and a hundred and seventeen wounded. 'And" is often omitted in American English: ... one hundred fifty dollars. 3 If you want to say or write in words a number between 1000 and 1,000,000, there are various ways of doing it. Example: 1872 - eighteen hundred and seventy two - one thousand eight hundred and seventy-two you cannot use 'a' instead of 'one' here - one eight seven two a room number, a telephone number - eighteen seventy-two 4 When numbers over 9999 are written in figures, a comma is usually put after the fourth figure from the end, the seventh figure from the end, and so on, dividing the figures into groups of three. Example: 15,000, 1,982,000 With numbers between 1000 and 9999, a comma is sometimes put after the first figure. Example: 1,526. When a number contains a full stop, the number or numbers after the full stop indicate a fraction. Example: 2.5 is two and a half. ordinals |
