٥١٠٧ is the number “5107” not “7015”.Note The number “1”واحد , functions as a regular adjective:
we say one man = رجل واحد / one Toy = لعبة واحدة
but when you order coffer don’t say one coffe = واحد قهوة
say a cup of coffe = فنجان قهوة
Note The number “two” functions as a regular dual adjective also is a pronoun.
