Give me a break, if that confuses a reader, then they are probably under 5 years old.
I think there are several rules on style that say the above was written correctly.
They started the sentence with the number “eleven”...usually a sentence is not started with the arabic numerals.
Freegards.
Incorrect. All style sheets say spell out a number that starts a sentence.
The grammar rules for numerals are not real specific other than they be consistent within the writing. When starting a sentence with a number, I believe it is appropriate to spell out the number.
