Another scenario where the use of 'and'and in a series of numbers is unclear to me is in explaining temperatures in Fahrenheit, i.e. 'one hundred and three degrees'like for example one hundred and three degrees. Though
Though I generally avoid correcting people, when patients relay their temperature as such, I clarify their intended meaning. For young or old, the intent can be 100.3 or 103.0, interestingly. This is unlikely an issue in other fields of work and in BrittishBritish or Canadian English.
Otherwise
Otherwise, I also was taught in grade school/primary school in Northern California,that that the use of 'and'and in a series of numbers indicated a decimal or preceded a fraction. For '150'150, both with and without 'and'and sound clear to me. In common speech, I would rarely be confused.
