1250 in Words

Learning how to break down a number can help us understand how to write it in words. Let’s now break down the number into its place values. This place value breakdown shows how the number should be represented in words and digits. The numbers written in word forms help to express numerical values accurately. Memorizing the place values of each digit helps in avoiding mistakes.

For writing numbers in words, we won't use hyphens. For writing large numbers in words, break the numbers into smaller parts to make it easier. 

Breaking down the number 1250

1250 in words: One thousand two hundred and fifty
1250 in numbers: 1250
 

Writing numbers in word form is about understanding and following the rules appropriately. It also requires a basic understanding of place values and their application. 

Let’s now learn how to write numbers in words with the help of a place value chart given below:
 

Step 1:  We will break down the given number i.e., 1250 into its place values:

Thousands: 1
Hundreds: 2
Tens: 5
Ones: 0

Step 2: Start from the highest place value to write the number in its word form.

• Checking the place value of 1, we write ‘one thousand’ in words (since the number in the thousands place is 1).
• Next, for the digit in the hundreds place, we write ‘two hundred’ in words.
• Since the number 5 is in the tens place we will write it as ‘fifty’.
• Finally, we have the number zero in the ones place for which we don't need to write anything.

Step 3: We’ll now combine all the components to write the number in word form:

One thousand+ two hundred+ fifty

Therefore, the number 1250 in word form is “One thousand two hundred fifty”.
