How 502 is written

502 is the sum of its place values, 500 + 2, and is written five hundred two.

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

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