Here we convert the cardinal number one hundred seventy-two (172) to an
ordinal number. This is useful if you want to use the number 172 as an
adjective when you speak or write it.
There are two ways of writing 172 as an ordinal number, either with letters
and numbers or just letters as follows:
172nd
one hundred seventy-second
When would you be using the ordinal instead of the cardinal version of 172
you ask?
You use 172 (cardinal) if you are describing how many of something, and you use 172nd (ordinal) if you
are describing a position or rank of something.
Like we mentioned above, remember to use the ordinal version of 172 when
172 is used as an adjective.
