Number Names 31 to 40

These are the words that we use to represent numbers, which makes them easier to read.
Take the number 35, it is written as ‘Thirty-Five’.

Writing numbers in words not only helps us write legal documents and fill forms, but it also improves a student's spelling skills.

There are two different ways of naming numbers:

• Indian Numbering System

• International Numbering System

Understanding how numbers are named using both systems will help in communication as well as in arithmetic calculations.

Now let’s discuss the two numbering systems.

In the Indian Numbering System, digits are assigned place values starting from the right. These place values include:

Ones → Tens → Hundreds → Thousands → Ten Thousands → Lakhs → Ten Lakhs → Crores

Each digit in a number has a value based on its position.

For example, in the number 36:

• 6 is in the ones place

• 3 is in the tens place

Let’s take a larger number: 9,56,28,743
It is written as:
Nine Crore Fifty-Six Lakhs Twenty-Eight Thousand Seven Hundred Forty-Three

The number gets placed as:

• 9 in the crores place

• 5 in the ten lakhs place

• 6 in the lakhs place

• 2 in the ten thousands place

• 8 in the thousands place

• 7 in the hundreds place

• 4 in the tens place

• 3 in the ones place

Just like the Indian Numbering System, the International Numbering System also uses place names, but they differ for larger numbers.

The place value starts from the right and follows this order:
Ones → Tens → Hundreds → Thousands → Ten Thousands → Hundred Thousands → Millions → Ten Millions → Hundred Millions, and so on.

Let’s take the example of 74,385,629
It is written as:
Seventy-Four Million Three Hundred Eighty-Five Thousand Six Hundred Twenty-Nine

The number gets placed as:

• 7 in the Ten Million place

• 4 in the Million place

• 3 in the Hundred Thousands place

• 8 in the Ten Thousands place

• 5 in the Thousands place

• 6 in the Hundreds place

• 2 in the Tens place

• 9 in the Ones place
