Spanish I: Numbers 100-900 by Mingxue Zheng and Lala Doumbia

Welcome to the lesson of the hundreds. You had probably noticed that every set of numbers had their own patterns, and so as the hundreds. 

Numbers 100 - 999: In these set of numbers, the hundreds and the tens place don’t need to be connected by “y.” But, you need to connect the tens and the ones place by “y”
