As you learn more and more Japanese, you will come across the apparently  confusing Japanese counting system as the numbers get more complex.  This is due to Chinese influence, as the counting system in Japan comes  from Chinese tradition, grouping larger numbers in “myriads” (every  10,000, unlike the Western way of grouping in thousands (1000).
in  Japanese, 乃rom 3 digits on, the numbers are counted as:
百 / “hyaku” / “100”
千 / “sen” / “1,000”
1万 / “ichi-man” / “10,000”
Numbers  from 20 to 90 are (“digit”)-jū
Hundreds from 200 to 900 are  “(digit)-hyaku”
Thousands from 2000 to 9000 are “(digit)-sen”
Tens of thousands from 10,000 to 90,000 are “(digit)-man”
Keep  in mind, that:
If written in Arabic numerals, they are separated by  commas every three digits (the same way you have always done!)
And  also, that:
in Japanese, when long numbers are written out in kanji,  zeros are omitted for all powers of ten (i.e., “4002” is written as ”  四千二 “)
This can be can be useful especially if you are travelling  around Japan and shopping around. It will really come in handy during  your stay!
