How do we read 325,122,836 Just ___21___ at it can confuse some people, but it shouldn’t Reading big numbers is quite simple if you break them into ___22___.
Step1
Start with a fairly small number that you should be able to read: 836. Let's break it down. The eight is in the ___23___, the three is in the tens-column, and the six is in the ones-column, so it is ___24___ as eight hundred and thirty-six.
Step 2
Add ___25___ digits (数字) to 836. Now the number is 122,836. The comma between the two and the eight is read as "__26___ ". Read the first three numbers: one hundred and twenty-two. Now say "thousand" where the comma is and say the last three digits as before. Now we have one hundred and twenty-two thousand eight hundred and thirty-six.
Step 3
___27___ three more digits to 122,836. Now we have 325,122,836. The former comma is still read as "thousand", but now we have another comma. That comma is read as "___28___ ". Read the first three numbers: three hundred and ___29___. Read the second set of three numbers: one hundred and twenty-two. And read the ___30___ set of three numbers as before. Now we have three hundred and twenty-five million one hundred and twenty-two thousand eight hundred and thirty-six.
