Question
How are numbers written in Hebrew?
Answer
There are no symbols for numbers (1,2,3…) in Hebrew; the letters of the alphabet have been used, since earliest times, to represent numbers. The first nine letters represent the numbers 1-9; the next nine represent the numbers 10-90; and the last four, together with the "final forms" of the letters kaph, mem, nun, peh. and tsadi, represemt the numbers 100-900.
