Here we convert the cardinal number sixteen (16) to an
ordinal number. This is useful if you want to use the number 16 as an
adjective when you speak or write it.
There are two ways of writing 16 as an ordinal number, either with letters
and numbers or just letters as follows:
16th
sixteenth
When would you be using the ordinal instead of the cardinal version of 16
you ask?
You use 16 (cardinal) if you are describing how many of something, and you use 16th (ordinal) if you
are describing a position or rank of something.
Like we mentioned above, remember to use the ordinal version of 16 when
16 is used as an adjective.
