  在汉英笔译和英语写作中,经常会遇到数字;哪些场合用单词表示,哪些场合用阿拉伯数字表示,往往使人难以确定,现行语法书中也极少涉及此类问题。下面由考试啦小编为大家整理的关于英语数字表达方法的内容,希望大家喜欢!

  英语中纯数字的表达方法

  小数和分数:

  0.17 zero point one seven / point seventeen / zero point seventeen

  1/2 one half

  1/3 one /a third

  3/4 three fourths

  7'2/ 5seven and two fifths

  大于100的数字:

  101 one hundred (and ) one

  200 two hundred

  998 nine hundred ( and ) ninety'eight

  在英语中上面括弧中的and一般不能省略;而在美国英语中却往往省去。请分析下面的对话:

  A:How many people are present in the party last night?

  B: That‘s nine hundred and ninety-eight, exactly.

  A: Woo, you must be joking. How can you get such an accurate number?

…… 此处隐藏1737字 ……

  60% profit was a reported.据报道有60%的利润。

  应改写成:Sixty per cent profit…

  1345 kilograms force was applied at the center point of the bar.

  试验时在杆的中点加1345公斤力。

  可改成When tested, a force of l345 kg was applied…

  (6)遇到分数,可用带连字符号的单词表示,如:

  At 1east two-thirds of the class have had colds. 这个班至少有三分之二的学生患重感冒。

  Nitrogen forms about four-fifths of the atmosphere. 氮约占大气的五分之四。
