Number Names 61 to 80

Here is your content reformatted with proper spacing, ready to copy-paste:


These are the words that we use to represent numbers, which makes it easier to read.
Take the number 75, it is written as ‘Seventy-Five’.

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

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 assist in communication as well as 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 73, the digit 3 is in the ones place, and 7 is in the tens place.

Starting from the right, the order goes from:
ones → tens → hundreds → thousands → ten thousands → lakhs → ten lakhs → crores

Each digit will have its value based on its position in the number.

Let’s take an example of the number 62,743
The number is written as Sixty-Two Thousand Seven Hundred Forty-Three

The number gets placed as:
6 in the ten thousands place
2 in the thousands place
7 in the hundreds place
4 in the tens place
3 in the ones place

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

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 74,365,269.
The number is written as:
Seventy-Four Million Three Hundred Sixty-Five Thousand Two Hundred Sixty-Nine

The number gets placed as:
7 in the Ten Million place
4 in the Million place
3 in the Hundred Thousands place
6 in the Ten Thousands place
5 in the Thousands place
2 in the Hundreds place
6 in the Tens place
9 in the Ones place

Tips and Tricks for Number Names 61 to 80

Always use a hyphen while writing numbers like 65 and 78. It should be written as Sixty-Five and Seventy-Eight. Always focus on the tens place for numbers like 70, 72, 74, etc. After writing the tens place name, you just need to add the number in the ones place. For example, 70 is written as Seventy, 72 is written as Seventy-Two, and 74 is written as Seventy-Four.

Writing Eighty Zero instead of Eighty

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Students might get confused between Eighty Zero and Eighty for 80. The correct way to express 80 in words is Eighty. There’s no need to write zero after eighty.

Mistake 3

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

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, 71 is written as Seventy-One. But in American English, we do not use ‘and’. The number 71 in American English is written as Seventy-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-Five as Sixty-Five and not Sixty-Five.

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 71 and 17. In 71, we have 1 in the ones place and 7 in the tens place. In 17, we have 7 in the ones place and 1 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.
