  It doesn't really matter I don't guess.  Are you writing a check? 

  If it was $11,849 would you say "eight hundred and forty nine dollars"?  I wouldn't, so I left the "and" out. 

  I'm an accountant and write and cash checks everyday at work, I see them written both ways.  The one I'm looking at right now is $705.04 and it says seven hundred five & 04/100 dollars.

  from what I remember from fifth grade math, the "and" indicates a decimal point.

  On DD's current homework, they do not write the "and".

  Technically, "and" denotes a decimal point. Unless you are talking about cents, you don't use the and.
