๐Ÿ“š Quick Study Guide

  • ๐Ÿ”ข The Basics: Commas are used to separate large numbers into groups of three digits, starting from the right.
  • ๐Ÿ“ Placement Rule: Place a comma after every three digits, moving from right to left (ones, tens, hundreds, *comma*, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, *comma*, millions, etc.).
  • ๐ŸŒ International Variations: While periods are sometimes used instead of commas in other countries, this guide focuses on the standard US/UK comma usage.
  • โœ… No Comma Zone: Four-digit numbers (1000 to 9999) generally do not use a comma.
  • ๐Ÿ’ก Example: 1,234,567 represents one million, two hundred thirty-four thousand, five hundred sixty-seven.
