Here we convert the cardinal number eighty-seven (87) to an
ordinal number. This is useful if you want to use the number 87 as an
adjective when you speak or write it.
There are two ways of writing 87 as an ordinal number, either with letters
and numbers or just letters as follows:
87th
eighty-seventh
When would you be using the ordinal instead of the cardinal version of 87
you ask?
You use 87 (cardinal) if you are describing how many of something, and you use 87th (ordinal) if you
are describing a position or rank of something.
Like we mentioned above, remember to use the ordinal version of 87 when
87 is used as an adjective.
