seven hundred
seven hundred
se then hundred
when you’re counting numbers by hundreds
just put the base number before hundred
in this case seven plus hundred makes
seven hundred
this statue is seven hundred years old
this statue is seven hundred years old
this statue is
700 years old
800
800
800
so just like the last example
800 refers to 8 hundredths of something
the field is 800 hectares
the field is 800 hectares
the field is 800 hectares
200
200
so again when you’re counting by
hundreds simply put the number before
the word hundred so two hundred refers
to two one hundreds of something
we have over two hundred books here
we have over two hundred books here
we have over two hundred books here
three hundred
three hundred
three hundred
again the latest example three plus
hundred refers to three one hundredths
of something you can see that in english
we don’t make a change to the number
that comes before hundred in some
languages your number that you use to
count hundreds may change according to
the sound or according to the spelling
of the word in english we do not need to
change this base number
this school has 300 students
this school has 300 students
this school has 300 students
600
600
hundred
our final example of hundreds today is
six hundred so again six comes before
the word hundred to refer to six one
hundredths of something
six times one hundred equals six hundred
six times one hundred equals six hundred
six times one hundred equals six hundred
