Read the excerpt from The Metamorphoses by Ovid.
"The Nereids wonder at the groves, the cities, and the houses under water; dolphins get into the woods, and run against the lofty branches, and beat against the tossed oaks. The wolf swims among the sheep; the wave carries along the tawny lions; the wave carries along the tigers. Neither does the powers of his lightning-shock avail the wild boar, nor his swift legs the stag, now borne away. The wandering bird, too, having long sought for land, where it may be allowed to light, its wings failing, falls down into the sea. The boundless range of the sea had overwhelmed the hills, and the stranger waves beat against the heights of the mountains. The greatest part is carried off by the water: those whom the water spares, long fastings overcome, through scantiness of food."

Thirty-five and twelve thousandths because... 35 is just thirty-five The decimal point in words is 'and' And the 012 goes to the thousandths place... One place after the decimal place is tenths Two places is hundredths And three places is thousandths Does that help?
The numeral 35.012 is written in words as 'Thirty-five and twelve thousandths.' This is because 'thirty-five' represents the whole number, 'and' signifies the decimal point, and 'twelve thousandths' describes the decimal part. Each part is named based on its position relative to the decimal point.
