Writing it on a cheque
On a cheque the amount line reads "Three thousand two hundred and sixteen and 00/100" — or "Three thousand two hundred and sixteen 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.
