Writing it on a cheque
On a cheque the amount line reads "Two thousand one hundred and forty and 00/100" — or "Two thousand one hundred and forty 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.
