Here we convert the cardinal number forty-two (42) to an
ordinal number. This is useful if you want to use the number 42 as an
adjective when you speak or write it.
There are two ways of writing 42 as an ordinal number, either with letters
and numbers or just letters as follows:
42nd
forty-second
When would you be using the ordinal instead of the cardinal version of 42
you ask?
You use 42 (cardinal) if you are describing how many of something, and you use 42nd (ordinal) if you
are describing a position or rank of something.
Like we mentioned above, remember to use the ordinal version of 42 when
42 is used as an adjective.
