How to write 423 in words?

Writing numbers in words is essential when filling official documents or checks. But how do we write a number like 423 in words?

 

The answer lies in breaking the number into its place values. Let’s look into how we represent 423 in its place values with the help of a place value chart. So for 423, we split the number into hundreds, tens, and ones. 4 represents the hundreds place, 2 represents the tens place, and 3 represents the ones place.

 

Step 1: Begin with the leftmost digit and assign each digit a place value as you move from left to right. For 423, we start from hundreds, tens, and then the ones place.

 

Step 2: Next, combine the values from each place and then read the values aloud. In 423, we can see that the number consists of 3 ‘ones’, 2 ‘tens’, and 4 ‘hundreds’. Starting from the leftmost value, read the number together from left to right, keeping in mind the place values.

 

When we read it out loud, we read it as “four hundred twenty-three”.
