Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Usually the textbook has a list of numbers in the appendix. If not, let me know and I'll give you a sheet with numbers.

quinientos uno mil dos cientos ochenta y nueve

P.S. Sorry, Meredith! I was not awake when I saw this post.

500 = quinientos
501 = quinientos uno
1.000 = mil
BUT 501.000 = quinientos un mil dos cientos ochenta y nueve

To translate the number 501,289 into Spanish written form, follow these steps:

1. Divide the number into three main parts: the thousands, hundreds, and tens.

501,289 can be broken down as:
- Thousands: 501
- Hundreds: 0 (There are no hundreds in this number)
- Tens: 289

2. Translate each part separately.

- Thousands: 501 is rendered as "quinientos uno mil" in Spanish. Here, "quinientos" means 500, "uno" means 1, and "mil" means thousand.
- Hundreds: Since there are no hundreds in this number, you can skip this step.
- Tens: 289 reflects as "doscientos ochenta y nueve" in Spanish. Here, "doscientos" means 200, "ochenta" means 80, and "nueve" means 9.

3. Combine the translations.

Putting it all together, the Spanish written form for 501,289 would be "quinientos uno mil doscientos ochenta y nueve."

So, "501,289" translates to "quinientos uno mil doscientos ochenta y nueve" in Spanish.
