You're welcome, Brenna.

To determine whether the number in each sentence is written correctly, we need to evaluate each sentence individually.

A. "One-hundred and thirty-two people lined up to buy the tickets."
In this sentence, the number is written as "one-hundred and thirty-two," which is correct as per the usual convention. Therefore, the number is written correctly in this sentence.

B. "John just paid $33 thousand for his new car."
In this sentence, the number is written as "$33 thousand." The correct convention is to use the comma to separate thousands, so the correct form would be "$33,000." Therefore, the number in this sentence is not written correctly.

C. "The parcel of land was advertised as two hundred forty-three and three-quarters acres."
In this sentence, the number is written as "two hundred forty-three and three-quarters." Although it is generally preferable to use numeric digits for clarity, it is also acceptable to write numbers out as words. However, the word "and" should not be used between "forty-three" and "three-quarters." The correct form would be "two hundred forty-three and three-quarters," without the "and" before the "three-quarters." Therefore, the number in this sentence is not written correctly.

D. "The college has an endowment of more than $187 million."
In this sentence, the number is written as "$187 million." This is the correct way to write the number in millions. Therefore, the number in this sentence is written correctly.

Based on the evaluation of each sentence, your answer is incorrect. Only sentence D has the number written correctly.
