Knowing the numbers to 100 will allow you to understand phone numbers, dates, times, and prices in France. As you will see, learning the numbers in French is a bit like doing math, but it's very simple math.
Learning the numbers to 100 in French can be done systematically. It is very important to master the numbers 1-20 because you will see these numbers used again and again.
You probably noticed that the numbers 17, 18, 19 are simple math problems:

17 = 10 + 7, dix-sept

18 = 10 + 8, dix-huit

19 = 10 + 9, dix-neuf

Next, you should learn the numbers by tens.
You will quickly notice a pattern for all the numbers between 21 and 69. The numbers 21, 31, 41, 51, and 61 join the numbers with the conjunction ''and'' or et (ay) in French, as in vingt et un. The other numbers are joined by a hyphen, like in English. Twenty-two is vingt-deux, thirty-four is trente-quatre, and sixty-seven is soixante-sept. The first number is the multiple of 10, the second number comes from the ''ones'' place.
Numbers 70-100
So far, so good, right? French numbers follow a pretty simple pattern. From 70 on, the numbers do not follow quite the same pattern, but they recycle numbers that you already know.

It may be helpful to know that the French number system was originally based on the number 20, instead of 10 like our system. British numbers used a similar system. In President Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, he used the expression: ''four score and seven years ago.'' This was an eloquent way of saying ''87 years ago'' (4 score {20} = 80 and 7). Today, most of the numbers have been renamed. Nevertheless, the numbers 70 through 99 still follow this system.

The numbers 40 and 60 used to be: 40 = ''2 20'' or deux-vingts, short for ''2 times 20'' and 60 = ''3 20'' or trois-vingts, short for ''3 times 20''.

The number 80 remains the same to this day: ''4 20'', or quatre-vingts.

The number 70 used to be trois-vingt-dix. This has been adapted to soixante and dix, to become soixante-dix. The numbers between 11 and 19 continue to be added to soixante to make the numbers 71 to 79, as in the chart below.
