Here we convert the cardinal number fifty-nine (59) to an
ordinal number. This is useful if you want to use the number 59 as an
adjective when you speak or write it.
There are two ways of writing 59 as an ordinal number, either with letters
and numbers or just letters as follows:
59th
fifty-ninth
When would you be using the ordinal instead of the cardinal version of 59
you ask?
You use 59 (cardinal) if you are describing how many of something, and you use 59th (ordinal) if you
are describing a position or rank of something.
Like we mentioned above, remember to use the ordinal version of 59 when
59 is used as an adjective.
