Bleh...I'm sorry, but since you failed to edit your post to make it correct, I'm going to have to take over for you.
First of all, the -tsu ending in parantheses is for counting objects that don't have their own specific counter. For example, in English we might say, a can of soda, or a ream of paper, etc. -Tsu just one of these counters.
Anyways, here's the proper numbers for you guys:
0 - 丸 - Maru 1 - 一 - Ichi 2 - 二 - Ni 3 - 三 - San 4 - 四 - Yon 5 - 五 - Go 6 - 六 - Roku 7 - 七 - Nana 8 - 八 - Hachi 9 - 九 - Kyuu 10 - 十 - Juu
Now, make careful note of how I do the numbers from now on:
十一 - Juu ichi - 11 See? It's just a ten with a one after it..and 10+1=11! 十二 - Juu ni - 12 - Once again, 10 + 2 = 12 十三 - Juu san - 13 See? 10 + 3 = 13
And this continues on until 20...
20: 二十 - Ni juu 21:二十一 - Ni juu ichi
30: 三十 - San juu 31: 三十一 - San juu ichi
You can continue on in this way up until 99!
百 - Hyaku - Hundred
The counters in the above post are correct. Other counters include -Kai for number of times, -Mai for flat items, etc. We'll get into that later.
