Writing it on a cheque

On a cheque the amount line reads "Two thousand two hundred and sixty and 00/100" — or "Two thousand two 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.
