Cardinal numbers are numbers that say how many of something there are, for example: one, two, three, four, five. They are sometimes called counting numbers.

Please read the following number

• One digit number

1. = one

2. = two

3. = three

4. = four

5. = five

6. = six

7. = seven

8. = eight

9. = nine 

• Two digit number

10. = ten

11. = eleven

12. = twelve

13. = thirteen

14. = fourteen

19. = nineteen

20. = twenty

If a number is in the range of 21 to 99, and the second digit is not zero, one typically writes the number as two words separated by a hyphen

• 21-99 twenty and follow by one to nine after - (hyphen) for example 

21 = twenty-one /22= twenty-two /29 = twenty-nine

• 30-39   thirty to thirty-nine

• 40-49   forty to forty-nine

• 50-59   fifty to fifty-nine

• 60-69   sixty to sixty-nine

• 70-79   seventy to seventy-nine

• 80-89   eighty to- eighty-nine

• 90-99   ninety to ninety-nine

• 100  one hundred (a hundred)

Reading the numbers of hundred, we applied the same method as reading one and two digit and put “and” after hundred.

• 101 one hundred and one

• 111 one hundred and eleven

• 199 one hundred and ninety-nine

• 200 two hundred

• 300 three hundred

• 1,000 one thousand (a thousand)

• 1,001 one thousand and one

• 2,000 two thousand

• 1,000,000 one million (a million)

• 2,000,000 two million
