I've never had checks before, and I'm confused on how to write out the money amout..?

Answer 1

Here are a couple of examples, if it helps

145.25 write: One hundred forty five and 25/100
1150.25 write: One thousand one hundred fifty and 25/100

Answer 2

Instructions
STEP 1: Start by writing in the date using any format, as long as it's legible. Use either the current date or a future date for a post-dated check.

STEP 2: Write the name of the person or company receiving your check on the line that starts with "Pay to the Order of" or "Payable to."

STEP 3: Write the numerical dollar amount of the check in the small space that starts with a dollar sign ($) so that it reads like this: $25.63.

STEP 4: Write the same amount using words for whole dollar amounts, a fractional figure for amounts less than a dollar, and a straight line to fill up the remaining space on the line ending with the word "Dollars," like this: Twenty-five and 63/100 ------------- Dollars.

STEP 5: Sign the signature line at the lower right.

STEP 6: Note the check number, date, payee and amount on the check stub or in the check ledger at the front of your checkbook.

STEP 7: Subtract the amount of the check so that you will know how much you have left in your account.

Answer 3

What's the largest amount of money you've ever found? $2,500 ( Winning pick 4 lotto ticket ) How did you find it? It was on the floor in the men's room What did you do with the money? It went towards the mortgage payment What's the largest amount of money you've ever lost/misplaced? $5

Answer 4

You write the numbers in the little box on the right hand side of the check. There is usually a $ next to that box. So for a $1000 check, you write
1,000.00
in that box.

On the long line in the middle of the check, you spell out the amount of the check (and be sure to draw a line from the end of your writing to the end of that line so that no one can add more words to it). So for that $1000 check, you write
One Thousand ---------------------------------------------------

If the check is for 867.33, you write
Eight Hundred Sixty-Seven and 33/100 ------------------

Answer 5

with checks make sure u have the money in your bank account first.. then when u write the check amount subtract that from your account.. PS sometimes it take 5 days for the people to take out the money so don't spend it..

Answer 6

this explains everything about having a checking account. don't forget to record the amounts for each check, like I sometimes do.

Answer 7

You write it exactly the way you say it- One thousand one hundred eleven dollars AND (decimal point) ninety-nine cents. Or 99/100.
