how to say "through"

If I want to say, "one through ten," which translation of "through" should I use? I got three different answers when I tried the translator. Also, the translation was different when I tried "one through one hundred."

Del uno al diez is the correct form. It is fairly common to see de uno a diez as well though. I guess the translator is tired :/

Also hasta will might work...
[desde / de] uno hasta diez = [from] one to ten

Possibly desde/hasta might be more typical for describing a physical (or metaphysical) journey. Que piensas en esto? - Jeremias, Aug 3, 2011
Or maybe time? You can stay out from 1pm to 10pm? - webdunce, Aug 3, 2011
Google results for "de uno a diez" = 472,000; for "de uno hasta diez" = 11,000...so, I'd say hasta is rarely used for this...or I misunderstood something. - webdunce, Aug 3, 2011

I agree with Bafalck:
"De uno a diez" is common.
