%	Percent	%
(((1 + 6) - 2) x 2) ÷ 2.5=4	One plus six minus two multiplied by two divided by two point five equals four or One and six take away two times two divided by two point five is four	1 + 6 - 2 x 2 ÷ 2.5=4
10% 100=10	Ten percent of one hundred equals ten.	10% 100=10

What to say
We often say "a" instead of "one". For example when we have the numbers 100 or 1/2 we say "A hundred" or "A half". For example: 11/2 - "One and a half."
When pronouncing decimals we use the word point to represent the dot. The numbers following the dot are pronounced separately. For example: When you have the number 1.36 we say "One point three six."

Interesting Numbers
~ 0 ~ What could possibly be interesting about nothing? It's the number of ways you can say 0 in English. When we use it For example:- 0 = oh after a decimal point 9.02 = "Nine point oh two." in bus or room numbers Rooom 101 = "Room one oh one." Bus 602 = "Bus six oh two." in phone numbers 9130472 = "Nine one three oh four seven two." in years 1906 = "Nineteen oh six." 0 = nought before a decimal point 0.06 = "Nought point oh six." 0 = zero in temperature -10°C = "10 degrees below zero." US English for the number 0 = "Zero" 0 = nil in football Chelsea 2 Manchester United 0 = "Chelsea two Manchester United nil." 0 = love in tennis 20 - 0 = "Twenty love."
~ 12 ~ The number 12 is often represented as a dozen and the number 6 as a half dozen. For example: 12 eggs= "A dozen eggs." 6 eggs = "Half a dozen eggs."^
~ 13 ~ A dozen is 12, but a baker's dozen is 13, because in the past bakers who were caught shortchanging customers could be liable to severe punishment, so they used to add an extra bread roll to make up the weight.
~ 1 billion ~ When is a billion not a billion? In British English billion traditionally means a million million = 1,000,000,000,000 = 1012 In American English billion means a thousand million = 1,000,000,000 = 109 The American billion has become standard in technical and financial use. However, to avoid confusion it is better to use the terms "thousand million" for 109 and "million million" for 1012. Milliard " is French for the number 109. It is not used in American English but is sometimes, but rarely, used in British English.
