The question

Question: write 4,306 in words.

Write 4,306 in words

1 Split at the commas

The commas split the number into parts.

4 is the thousands part.

= 4 thousand | 306

2 Say each part

4 thousand is said four thousand.

4 thousand → four thousand

306 is said three hundred six.

306 → three hundred six

No tens: we say nothing for them.

3 Join them

We join them with a comma, like the number: four thousand, three hundred six.

= four thousand, three hundred six

4 Check

We read it back: four thousand, three hundred six is 4,306.

Yes!

It works.

four thousand, three hundred six → 4,306
