How 145 is written

145 is the sum of its place values, 100 + 40 + 5, and is written one hundred forty-five.

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

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

Its Roman numeral CXLV uses subtractive notation: XL means 40, written as X before L instead of repeating X.
