Expressing numbers in English

a. If a number is in the range 21 to 99, and the second digit is not zero, we should write the
number as two words separated by a hyphen:
34 thirty-four
57 fifty-seven
b. Numbers over 100 are generally written in figures. However if you want to say them aloud
or want to write them in words rather than figures you put and in front of the number
expressed by the last two figures. For example:
203 two hundred and three
622 six hundred and twenty-two
c. Numbers between 1,000 and 1,000,000 are usually said or written in words as:
1,803 one thousand, eight hundred and three
1,963 one thousand, nine hundred and sixty-three
2,840 two thousand, eight hundred and forty
