Here we convert the cardinal number seventy-two (72) to an
ordinal number. This is useful if you want to use the number 72 as an
adjective when you speak or write it.
There are two ways of writing 72 as an ordinal number, either with letters
and numbers or just letters as follows:
72nd
seventy-second
When would you be using the ordinal instead of the cardinal version of 72
you ask?
You use 72 (cardinal) if you are describing how many of something, and you use 72nd (ordinal) if you
are describing a position or rank of something.
Like we mentioned above, remember to use the ordinal version of 72 when
72 is used as an adjective.
