7,801 splits into 7 | 801. In the final group, the tens place is zero, so “one” follows “eight hundred” directly.
The comma boundary separates 7 from 801: “seven thousand” is read before “eight hundred one”.
The tens position contains zero. It preserves place value in the numeral but adds no spoken word.
The American English style used here normally omits “and” between “hundred” and the following tens or ones.
