第二章、小数、分数、百分数和运算符号

1. 小数表示法

(1) 小数的读法
  小数点左边的数通常按基数词读,若为三位以上的数,也可按编码式读法读出,即将数字单个读出;小数点右边的数通常按编码式读法单个读出。如:
6.86 six point eight six
14.15 fourteen point one five
345.456 three four five point four five six
three hundred and forty five point four five six

(2) 小数中 “0” 的读法
“0”
在小数中通常读作 nought (英)或 zero (美),也可读作字母 o 。如:
0.08
nought point nought eight zero point zero eight
9.07 nine point o seven

2. 百分数表示法

百分数中的百分号%读作 percent 。如:
6%
读作 six percent
0.6%
读作 nought point six percent
500%
读作 five hundred percent

3. 倍数表示法

倍数表示方法很多,如:

1/3 one-third

2/3 two-thirds

3/5 three-fifths

 

(2) 较复杂分数的简明读写方法。如

22/9 twenty-two over nine
a/b a over b
a divided by b

43/97 forty-three over ninety-seven

 

(3) 整数与分数之间须用 and 连接。如:

four and a half

nine and two fifths

 

(4) 分数用作前置定语时,分母要用单数形式。注意下列写法与读法。如:
