How 122 is written

122 is the sum of its place values, 100 + 20 + 2, and is written one hundred twenty-two.

Its ordinal form is one hundred twenty-second — only the final element takes the ordinal ending — and on a check the amount line reads "One hundred twenty-two and 00/100", where 00/100 stands for zero cents.

British English inserts "and" before the last part, giving one hundred and twenty-two, where American English writes one hundred twenty-two without it.
