Students while writing numbers in words tend to make some common errors. Here is a list of common errors made by students and the ways to avoid them.
Spelling mistakes
Students tend to make spelling mistakes always, so to avoid it, try to memorize it. Some common spelling mistakes for the word thousand are thosand, thousand, etc.
Formatting errors
Mixing up numbers and words is again a common mistake. For example one apple and 2 chocolate, instead, we should write 1 apple and 2 chocolate.
Using unnecessary hyphens
Adding hyphens in between is another mistake children tend to make again. Hyphens are only used while writing compound numbers.
Incorrect use of the word and
Adding and after writing a place value is a mistake. But in American English, when we write numbers in words, we won't add and. In British English it is written as two hundred and ten, whereas in American English it is written as two hundred ten.
Incorrect use of capitalization
When writing numbers in words, there is no need to add writing in capital letters unless it is at the beginning of a sentence.


The number 50000 on a check is written as fifty thousand only. To avoid fraud, the word only is added.
The number 500 in words is written as five hundred. As, it has five in the hundreds and zero in the ones and tens place.
The first five multiples of 5 are 5, 10, 15, 20, 25.
