Numerical Expression Guidelines in Exams
Expressing numbers incorrectly (e.g. writing '5' instead of 'five' or vice versa) can trigger half-error penalty deductions depending on official examination instructions.
Standard Number Formatting Reference

| Dates & Financial Amounts | Numerical digits with commas & symbols | "15th August 2026", "Rs. 50,000" |
