How 260 is written

260 is the sum of its place values, 200 + 60, and is written two hundred sixty.

Its ordinal form is two hundred sixtieth — only the final element takes the ordinal ending — and on a check the amount line reads "Two hundred sixty and 00/100", where 00/100 stands for zero cents.

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