Writing Numbers in Word Form

In Five White, the students have been learning how to write large numbers in word form. The students in Five White have learnt that inside each large group we read the numbers as hundreds, tens and ones.

For example:

63 497 –  Sixty-three thousand, four hundred and ninety-seven.

226 443 – Two hundred and twenty-six thousand, four hundred and forty-three.

832 562 713 – Eight hundred and thirty-two million, five hundred and sixty-two thousand, seven hundred and thirteen.

Click here to visit the population clock we looked at in mathematics today.

Write the large number from the population clock  in numeral form and word form in a comment and/or select your own large number and write it in numeral form and word form in a comment.

    We have just read through your blog and think you’re very clever to be able to write all so many large numbers in word form. We even clicked on the Australian Population clock and were very surprised to learn how large Australia’s population is. We are looking forward to visiting your blog again.

      It’s all thanks to our teacher Miss Azzopardi she’s taught us a lot including Roman numerals, expanded notation, ascending and descending, place value and a lot more things to do with our subject Whole number. I agree it is very surprising to see the population clock, the numbers are going up and down nearly each minute. What subject are you learning this term in maths?

    Dear Five White and Miss Azzopadi
    Miss Azzopardi was good for teaching us about Roman numerals,expanded notation, place value.I also didn’t know that the number zero is a place holder. It was also great to see the government website so they show when a new baby is born it goes up when someone dies it goes down and also on our blog it was great to see other peoples class blog.

    Sincerely

    Aswin

      Dear: Aswin,
