Inconsistent direction as to numerals

One segment instructs us to use digits instead of spelling out numbers--which I did.  I was rewarded for writing '40' instead of 'cuaranta' at the same time that there was a deduction for writing '1' rather than 'una'!

This question relates to:Spanish dictation exercise "Canalejas Center "

Hola David,

we added an extra hint instructing to use the numbers mentioned in figures but not the indefinite article "una" in the beginning because un/una are normally written in letters. 

I hope that helps.

Saludos
