ordinal number. This is useful if you want to use the number 279 as an
adjective when you speak or write it.
There are two ways of writing 279 as an ordinal number, either with letters
and numbers or just letters as follows:

two hundred seventy-ninth
When would you be using the ordinal instead of the cardinal version of 279
you ask?
You use 279 (cardinal) if you are describing how many of something, and you use 279th (ordinal) if you
are describing a position or rank of something.
