Great way of explaining how to read the numbers! ! I got it now, thanks... I wanna like the video, but it's currently on 777 and I like that numbre haha
Thanks much for sharing . Have just found your channel and it really helps me a lot. . I have a question, is it okay if we don't put zero digits like for example 1,678,957.00 instead of 1,678,957 or both the same? Hope you will notice my concern. Bless you more!!
Let me start with a basic answer and then give a more nuanced answer. This is a whole number: 1,678,957. This is a decimal number: 1,678,957.00. Both numbers are equal. Here is the more nuanced answer. When should you use a decimal number and when should you use a whole number? To answer this question, you have to answer two other questions: 1. How precise can you be? (Can you accurately measure the number to one, two, or three decimal places?) 2. How precise do you want to be? (Does your audience really care about the decimal places?) If you are an accountant calculating the taxes owed to the Canadian government in Canadian dollars, and you are writing the information in a company report, you would use two decimal places -- $1,678,957.00. This is because Canadian currency uses dollars and cents. Everything to the left of the decimal place is dollars, and everything to the right of the decimal place is cents. The number would read as 1 million, 678 thousand, 957 dollars and zero cents.) The same accountant presenting this information to the boss may get rid of the decimal place thinking the boss doesn't need to know how many cents were paid. So, in the presentation the accountant would say, "We paid $1,678,957 in taxes." The accountant may even round the number to make it simpler. "We paid just under $1,679,000 in taxes." If you work for the city office and you are reporting the population of the city, you can't use decimal numbers. There is no such thing as "0.5 people." You would use a whole number. "The population is 1,678,957." Also, population is probably very difficult to measure in real time because people are being born every minute, people move, or people may die. In addition, the audience probably doesn't care about the exact number. For this reason, the population would usually be reported as a rounded number. "The population is approximately 1,679,000." Using decimal numbers, whole numbers, or rounded numbers is a choice. The key point is that you need a reason for the choices you make. Hope that helps. Thanks for the question.
"And" must be used between a whole number and a fraction, but it is not used for decimals. Compare: 1.356 = one point three five six. 2 1/2 = two a half. "And" is optional when used with large numbers. With large numbers, "and" can be used between the "hundreds and tens". For example, 120 = one hundred twenty = one hundred twenty. It can also be used between the "hundreds and ones". For example, 101 = one hundred one = one hundred one.

Basically you say each number that is 1-999 the regular way. Then say either million, thousand, or nothing
Yep, that sounds right.
Yeyy i got all it correct

I thought and was said for the decimal place only
"And" must be used between a whole number and a fraction, but it is not used for decimals. Compare: 1.356 = one point three five six. 2 1/2 = two a half.
