Which of the following sentences show correct capitalization and number usage? 1. Go North on Spring Street, and you’ll see our building on the left.
2. When the chairman called the meeting to order, only 16 members were in attendance.
3. Four hundred applications were received by HR last month alone.
4. His Motorola Cell Phone was presented as exhibit A.

I believe there are two correct options:

2. When the chairman called the meeting to order, only 16 members were in attendance.

3. Four hundred applications were received by HR last month alone.

Explanation:

Number 1 is incorrect because north does not need to be capitalized in this situation, when it is indicating direction. Number 4 is also incorrect since cell phone is not a proper noun, and does not need to be capitalized.

On the other hand, numbers 2 and 3 seem to be correct. Number 2 does not show any improper capitalization. Also, it is okay to use numerals for numbers over ten. Number 3 does not use numerals, but that's because the number it mentions is the very first thing in the sentence. When numbers begin the sentence, they should always be spelled out. Also, the capitalization of HR is correct, since it is not only the name of the department (Human Resources), but also its abbreviation.
