Lesson 1.1
Reading and Writing Numbers up to
10 000 000 in Symbols and in Words
Introduction
Numbers are not only presented as numerals or digits; they can also be expressed in words
and may even be expanded. We commonly see this in a check. A check is a document that
directs a bank to pay a specific amount to the person the check has been issued. The
monetary amount written in a check is not only expressed in numbers but also in words. This
is to prevent tampering of the document as numerals alone can easily be tampered.
In this lesson, we will learn how to read and write numbers up to 10 000 000 in symbols and
words.

5. The members of each group will take turns in picking a strip of paper from the jar.
Then, one member will read the chosen number and write it in words on the board.
6. Every group that correctly reads and writes all numbers given to them shall receive a
reward.
Shown below are the place values of the digits in 14 414 774.
1 4 4 1 4 7 7 4
The digit 4 can be found in the millions place, the hundred thousands place, thousands place,
and the ones place.
A number can be written in three ways: standard form, word form, and expanded form. The
number 14 414 774 is written in standard form.

Example 2
Write 45 294 739 in words.
Solution
Step 1: Group the number into three digits starting from the right and put a space in
between. This is to separate the numbers by class or period.
4 5 2 9 4 7 3 9
Step 2: From the left, read the number per group just like reading a two-digit or
three-digit number, and then include the class name.
