Spelling questions for 140
Why is there no 一 before 百?
Within the 140 component, 100 is written 百. Standard cardinal spelling omits 一 before 十, 百 and 千, while 一 remains before a scale such as 万, 億 or 兆 when its coefficient is one.
How is the 40 component formed?
四十 combines 四 (4) with 十 (10): 4 × 10 = 40. A nonzero smaller place follows to its right.
Are the zero positions written as 〇 inside this number?
No. In this multiplicative cardinal form, unoccupied places and empty four-digit groups add no 〇. The nonzero terms reconstruct 140 exactly; digit-by-digit codes and year readings are a different convention.
