What is the written form of the number 78?

I waited in the lobby of the post office until my number, 78, appeared on the screen.

A.seventy eight

B.seventy-eight

Respuesta :

Seventy-eight

However, when writing a paper/story numbers smaller than ten (and ten itself) are spelled out, and words larger than ten are listed numerically. 

ex. Suzie has ten dogs.
ex. Suzie has 60 dogs.

When numbers are to appear in a list, the numbers are to be expressed numerically.

ex. Suzie has 1 cat, 3 poodles, and 30 ants.
