Decimals
English uses a point (.) for decimal numbers. The numbers before a decimal point are said normally. All the digits after a decimal point are said separately.
1.25 – one point two five
12.46 – twelve point four six
If a decimal point is a unit (e.g. of money), both parts can be said like normal numbers.
€87.65 – eighty seven euros sixty five eurocents
