This system results in "two thirds" for 2 ⁄ 3 and "fifteen thirty-seconds" for 15 ⁄ 32. This system is normally used for denominators less than 100 and for many powers of 10 . Examples include "six ten-thousandths" for 6 ⁄ 10,000 and "three hundredths" for 0.03.
(For example, 1/2 may be read one-half, one half, or one over two.) Fractions with large denominators that are not powers of ten are often rendered in this fashion (e.g., 1 / 117 as one over one hundred seventeen ), while those with denominators divisible by ten are typically read in the normal ordinal fashion (e.g., 6 / 1000000 ...

The same suffix may be used with more than one category of number, as for example the orginary numbers secondary and tertiary and the distributive numbers binary and ternary. For the hundreds, there are competing forms: Those in -gent- , from the original Latin, and those in -cent- , derived from centi- , etc. plus the prefixes for 1 through 9 .
Number Forms is a Unicode block containing Unicode compatibility characters that have specific meaning as numbers, but are constructed from other characters. They consist primarily of vulgar fractions and Roman numerals .
This usage probably evolved from the distinctive usage for years; "nineteen-eighty-one", or from four-digit numbers used in the American telephone numbering system which were originally two letters followed by a number followed by a four-digit number, later by a three-digit number followed by the four-digit number.
Organic tenant billings growth in the U.S. and Canada is expected to be greater than or equal to 4.3% and greater than or equal to 5.3%, excluding the impacts of Sprint churn, a modest reduction ...
A natural number is divisible by three if the sum of its digits in base 10 is divisible by 3. For example, the number 21 is divisible by three (3 times 7) and the sum of its digits is 2 + 1 = 3. Because of this, the reverse of any number that is divisible by three (or indeed, any permutation of its digits) is also divisible by three. For ...
