Number Names 51 to 100

These are the words that we use to represent numbers, which makes them easier to read. Take the number 75, it is written as ‘Seventy-Five’. Writing numbers in words not only helps us write legal documents, fill forms, but it also improves a student's spelling skills. There are two different ways of naming numbers: the Indian Numbering System and the International Numbering System. Understanding how numbers are named using both numbering systems will help in communication as well as in arithmetic calculations. Now let’s discuss the two numbering systems.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Indian Numbering System

In the Indian Numbering System, digits are assigned place values starting from the right. These place values include ones, tens, hundreds, and thousands, and continue to grow as the number increases. For example, in the number 86, the digit 6 is in the ones place and 8 is in the tens place. Starting from the right, the order goes from ones to tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, lakhs, ten lakhs, and crores. Each digit will have its value based on its position in the number. Let’s take an example of the number 57,843 The number gets written as Fifty-Seven Thousand Eight Hundred Forty-Three. The number gets placed as: 5 in the ten thousands place 7 in the thousands place 8 in the hundreds place 4 in the tens place 3 in the ones place

International Numbering System

Just like the Indian Numbering System, the International Numbering System also uses names, and they differ for bigger numbers. The place value starts from the right. The place values are ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, hundred thousands, millions, ten millions, hundred millions, and so on. Let’s take the example of 748,562 The number is written as Seven Hundred Forty-Eight Thousand Five Hundred Sixty-Two. The number gets placed as: 7 in the Hundred Thousands place 4 in the Ten Thousands place 8 in the Thousands place 5 in the Hundreds place 6 in the Tens place 2 in the Ones place

For example, 60 is written as Sixty. Rule 3: Numbers follow a pattern. For example, 55 is written as Fifty-Five, 68 is written as Sixty-Eight, and 92 is written as Ninety-Two.

Tips and Tricks for Number Names 51 to 100

Always use a hyphen while writing numbers like 65 and 78. They should be written as Sixty-Five and Seventy-Eight. For numbers ending in zero, you don't need to add anything after the tens name, like Eighty for 80 or Ninety for 90. Focus on the tens place for numbers like 50, 60, 70, etc. After writing the tens, just add the ones, if necessary. Numbers like 53 can be written as Fifty-Three.

Ignoring the Hyphen

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Ignoring hyphens while writing numbers like 65 and 78 will consider the number as separate numbers. For example, 65 should be written as Sixty-Five and not Sixty Five.

Mistake 2

Writing Ninety Zero instead of Ninety

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Students might get confused between Ninety Zero and Ninety for 90. The correct way to express 90 in words is Ninety. There’s no need to write zero after ninety.

Mistake 3

Using ‘and’ while writing number names in American English

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

We use ‘and’ while writing number names only in British English. For example, 61 is written as Sixty-One. But in American English, we do not use ‘and’. The number 61 in American English is written as Sixty-One. Always make sure that students are aware of the difference.

Mistake 4

Incorrect spelling

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

While writing the number names, be sure that you have written it correctly. For example, a child can write Sixty-Seven and Sixti-Seven.

Mistake 5

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Getting confused with the tens and ones place

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Students can get confused between numbers like 57 and 75. In 57, we have 7 in the ones place and 5 in the tens place. In 75, we have 5 in the ones place and 7 in the tens place. To avoid these, students need to learn how to pronounce the numbers correctly. Once they learn to pronounce the numbers, they can write the number names correctly.
