| etmishinchi | seventieth | |
| saksoninchi | eightieth | |

In Uzbek the denominator of a fraction always takes the ablative suffix while the numerator does not take any suffix:

| ikkidan bir | one half | |
| to’rtdan uch | three-fourths | |
| beshdan to’rt | four fifths | |
| o’ndan to’qqiz | nine tenths | |
The decimals are expressed by the word butun (whole) followed by the denominator and the numerator:

|---|---|---|
| o’ttiz sakkiz butun o’ndan olti | thirty eight and six tenths (36.6) | |
| bir butun o’ndan to’qqiz | one and nine tenths (1.9) | |
| ikki butun o’ndan besh | two and five tenths (2.5) | |
In spoken Uzbek the word butun frequently is omitted or replaced by -u or va, both meaning 'and':
