or
twenty four point nine one
Why? Or does it not matter?

the period means and. then after that it is tenths hundreths, thousanths, ten thousnats and so on. before the decimal is whole numbers.

Either works, mostly a preference. Those accountants I know who deal with numbers 24/7 just say twenty four point nine one, or two four point nine one. personal preference, both are right.

Its twenty four point nine one. You only link the two numbers if they are related, which these two are not as they each signify a different decimal place, rather than a whole number.

twenty-four point ninety-one
since 91 is after the decimal point, it doesn't have the value of ninety-one (in decimal form), so twenty-four point nine one, could also be correct.
I think it would also be twenty-four and ninety-one hundreths
24 91/100
(where its better if you say ninety-one hundreths, rather thna nine one hundreths)
hope it helped =)

As long as the decimal is used, the digits 9 and 1 can be quoted either way.
It could also be said as, 24 and 91/100.
If this represented money, it would be said as, 24 dollars and 91 cents.
