TEST TALK
Expanded form: 4,000,000,000 + 500,000,000 + 30,000,000 +
9,000,000
Standard form: 4,539,000,000
Word form: four billion, five hundred thirty-nine million
  Digits are the symbols used to show numbers: 0, 1,
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. In 4,539,000,000, the digit
5 has a place value in the hundred millions, so its
value is 500,000,000, which is 500 million.

Each group of three digits starting from the right
forms a period. Periods are separated by commas.
