This converter uses the short scale (one billion = 109), which is standard in US and modern UK English. Compound numbers below one hundred are hyphenated — "twenty-one", not "twenty one" — and "and" is omitted between hundreds and tens, following US usage.
The cheque format writes whole dollars in words and cents as a fraction of 100, the form banks accept on a written cheque. Decimals outside currency mode are read digit by digit after "point", the convention used when reading measurements aloud.
