Ordinal numbers suggest order such as first, second, third etc.
Cardinal numbers are counting numbers. One, two, three, etc.
Yes - cardinal numbers are the counting numbers. This is as distinct from ordinal numbers - the corresponding ordinal number for 66 is sixty-sixth.
"One" is a cardinal number, while "first" is an ordinal number.
Cardinal proportionality refers to the representation of quantities or values based on their absolute amounts, focusing on the actual size of the numbers involved. In contrast, ordinal proportionality is concerned with the rank or order of values rather than their magnitude, emphasizing the relative position of items within a set. Essentially, cardinal proportionality deals with "how much," while ordinal proportionality deals with "what position" in a hierarchy or sequence.
Cardinal numbers are one, two, three, four, ... Ordinal numbers are first, second, third, fourth, ...
Cardinal. 5th would the be corresponding ordinal number.A cardinal number.
Normally ordinal numbers refer to positive positions. Cardinal numbers are negative, zero or positive.

A difference is that with ordinal utility approaches, you cannot numerically measure the level of consumer satisfaction. With cardinal utility approaches, you can to an extent.
"One" is a cardinal number, while "first" is an ordinal number.
Cardinal directions (north, south, east, west) are the main directions on a compass rose, while ordinal directions (northeast, southeast, southwest, northwest) are the intermediate directions located between the cardinal directions. Ordinal directions provide more specific information about direction compared to cardinal directions.
Third (or 3rd) is the ordinal form of three.
Ordinal is to cardinal as fiftieth is to fifty. Ordinal numbers deal with the order (first, second, third, et cetera) while cardinal numbers are those used indicate quantity (one, two three, et cetera).

'Five' is cardinal, 'fifth' is ordinal.
When discussing cardinal vs. ordinal, it is helpful to look at what the words mean. The distinguishing factor here is between cardinal and ordinal numbers. Cardinal numbers are 1, 2, 3; ordinal numbers, 1st, 2nd, 3rd. Some crucial differences follow from that. Whereas mathematical operations can be performed on cardinal numbers, they cannot be performed on ordinal numbers. Now, when talking about cardinal utility, it is an attempt to ''measure the utility of various alternatives. When talking about ordinal utility, it is the ''ranking of alternatives.'''' Cardinal utility is, however, an erroneous concept. It is impossible to "measure" utility. People can only say "I prefer A to B", but cannot meaningfully say "I prefer A 2.5 times more than B" or something to that effect. Furthermore, comparisons of utility between different individuals are impossible and meaningless, as well as between the same individual at different points in time (as individuals can and do change their preferences -- that is, ordinal value-scale rankings). Because value is subjective, we cannot measure it and cannot compare between two different people, or even between the same person at different times. To clarify, ordinal utility culminates in value-scales: 1st: A2nd: B3rd: C whereas cardinal utility is the erroneous attempt at measurement: 10utils -- A7utils -- B3utils -- COmar Tawfik.
