Writing it on a cheque
On a cheque the amount line reads "One thousand nine hundred and sixty and 00/100" — or "One thousand nine hundred and sixty only" in Indian and much of Commonwealth practice. The fraction or the word "only" exists to stop anyone appending digits after what you wrote. Draw a line through any space left over for the same reason.
