The ordinal suffix '-th' is a standard and transparent transformation from the cardinal number.
Etymology
75Th is the normal way to show the ordinal form of the number 75: the number 'seventy-five' with the ending -th, the same ending you see in fourth and tenth. So 75th means 'the seventy-fifth' — the person or thing that comes after 'seventy-fourth' in a list, or the year that marks seventy-five years.
