Not properly spelling “seventeen”.

Students sometimes mistakenly spell "Seventeen" as "Seveteen" or "Seventin." The correct spelling is "Seventeen." To avoid this mistake, students should learn both the pronunciation and spelling of the word through regular practice.
 

Reversing the order of numbers.
 

 While writing the number in words, students may reverse the order of digits by writing the ones place at first. This mistake can be avoided by understanding the place values that starts from right first like ones, tens, hundreds, Thousands. We should always write ones first

 Getting confused with “seventy” and “seventeen”.
 

Some numbers have a similar way of pronunciation and this might create confusion while writing it in words. Teaching students the spelling and pronunciation of both can help them avoid this mistake 
 

Hyphens and spaces being used in the wrong way.
 

Hyphens must be used without spaces while writing numbers in words. For example, Ninety one looks like two different words, therefore hyphens are used to combine words Ninety-one

Not writing the digits completely in words.
 

The students might skip and not write the complete number in words. Students may write just “Seventeen” and forget writing a thousand, this makes it just Seventeen(17) and not Seventeen thousand(17000). To avoid this, make sure you read the number out load.
