Here we convert the cardinal number forty (40) to an
ordinal number. This is useful if you want to use the number 40 as an
adjective when you speak or write it.
There are two ways of writing 40 as an ordinal number, either with letters
and numbers or just letters as follows:
40th
fortieth
When would you be using the ordinal instead of the cardinal version of 40
you ask?
You use 40 (cardinal) if you are describing how many of something, and you use 40th (ordinal) if you
are describing a position or rank of something.
Like we mentioned above, remember to use the ordinal version of 40 when
40 is used as an adjective.
