How to write and say the numbers

Dates
    1. The way dates are written and spoken are different.
Written
17/9/1951
17 September 1951
17 Sept. 1951
    1. Spoken
The seventeenth of September, nineteen fifty one
September the seventeenth, nineteen fifty one
       Numbers
1.      O is pronounced in different ways. The number is called naught in British English and zero in American English.
When numbers are said one by one, we say oh like the letter
Example
Telephone number
3098
Sports are different
Football 3-0
Tennis 15-0
