MNCL5 Numbers

I've been undergoing some confusion the past few days (I haven't been able
to even do conlanging in awhile) and am distraught about the resulting loss of
my car, so I hope somebody can help me with the MNCL5 numbers.

I'm trying to use mostly borrowed words that more or less fit the phonology --
no onset clusters, long vowels and diphthongs can't be followed by more than
one consonant, and I forget what else. What I have so far is this:

0. nulo or ziro or ?
1. mono or heno ?
2. ?
3. sano ?
4. tetro
5. pento
6. hekso
7. hepto
8. haco ?
9. naino or noino or novno or ?
10. deko
20. vinto or regularly derived?
30. sanento ?
100. ?
1000. kilo

Is there more information needed?

Also I'm wondering if I should have non-compound words for the fractions
1/10, 1/100, 1/1000 etc.?

Please.

Jeff
