1. We have learned chinese numbers from 0 to 99, 零 一 二 三 四 五 六 七 八 九 十. Click here to revise.
2. Today we are going to learn on larger number: hundred 百, thousand 千, ten thousand 万 （traditional : 萬）, hundred million 亿 （traditional : 億）.

   • Arabic Number	Chinese Character	Pinyin	Pronunciation
     100		bǎi
     1,000		qiān
     10,000		wàn
     100,000,000		yì

3. For numbers larger than a myriad, the same grouping system used in English applies, except in groups of four places (myriads) rather than in groups of three (thousands).

   • Arabic Number	Chinese Character	Pronunciation
     100	一百
     1000	一千
     10 000	一万
     10 0000	十万
     100 0000	一百万
     1000 0000	一千万
     1 0000 0000	一亿

4. Hence it is more convenient to think of numbers here as in groups of four, thus 1,234,567,890 is regrouped here as 12,3456,7890. Examples:

   • Number		Characters in Mandarin
     255	255	两百五十五
     6,824	6824	六千八百二十四
     11,500	1,1500	一万一千五百
     556,824	55,6824	五十五万六千八百二十四
     3,005,000	300,5000	三百万五千
     403,255,135	4,0325,5135	四亿三百二十五万五千一百三十五
