Here we convert the cardinal number two hundred fifty-six (256) to an
ordinal number. This is useful if you want to use the number 256 as an
adjective when you speak or write it.
There are two ways of writing 256 as an ordinal number, either with letters
and numbers or just letters as follows:
256th
two hundred fifty-sixth
When would you be using the ordinal instead of the cardinal version of 256
you ask?
You use 256 (cardinal) if you are describing how many of something, and you use 256th (ordinal) if you
are describing a position or rank of something.
Like we mentioned above, remember to use the ordinal version of 256 when
256 is used as an adjective.
