Per Techincal Writing, Fifth Edition by Gordon H. Mills and John A. Walker, pp 474-475: * Spell out integer (whole) numbers below ten, unless several appear in the same passage. Examples: * ** 10 minutes ** seven days ** 22 nights ** 3 posts, 12 fittings, and 48 screws * When writing a compound number adjective (two numbers next to each other) spell out either the shorter or the first number. Examples: * ** seven 12-in. bolts ** 8 six-packs of root beer * Spell out stand-alone fractions unless they followed by units. Examples: * ** three-fourths of the pie ** 2-1/2 gpm ** 5-1/4 min * Do not use numerals at the beginning of a sentence * Do not use numerals in succession where confusion may occur. Example: * ** On July 4, seven people were taken to the hospital.
