How do you write two hundred five thousand or is it two hundred 'and' five thousand?

Answer 1

When writing out numbers in words, you would write "two hundred five thousand" without the word "and" in between. The word "and" is typically used when there are decimal points involved, such as in fractions or monetary amounts. In this case, "two hundred five thousand" is the correct way to write out the number 205,000.

Answer 2

205,000 would be written 'Two hundred five thousand'. The word 'and' used when numbers are written in words, implies a decimal point. The only time it is used properly is when you express a mixed number.

Examples:

$143.50: One hundred forty-three dollars and fifty cents.

62.57: Sixty-two and fifty-seven one hundredths.
