You can type numbers on the keyboard in two ways. One: By using the top second row of your keyboard where you will find the numeric keys in a horizontal layout. There you will be able to use all eight fingers to type the numbers except your thumbs. Two: By using the number pad of your keyboard where you will use the 5 fingers of your right hand.

Start practicing number typing using your eight fingers except the thumbs using the top row of your keyboard. Try to type regularly so that your muscle memory is built fast and consistently. The more you will type the numbers the better your brain will memorize them and you will not have a hard time typing the numbers anymore. However, it is important to note that accuracy is more important than speed. Once you have developed muscle memory, speed will come automatically.

Which one is best?

Which one to choose from the two options? It varies from person to person. You need to carefully observe your performance and choose whether you should be using the number row of your keyboard or the number pad of your keyboard.
