Speaks the number as a whole number

[fenglish]

Hi,

I found this sentence from one document: The number 123 is spoken as "one hundred twenty-three."

Can I say "one hundred and twenty three" ? what is the difference?

Thanks.

I think this is a BrE vs AmE difference. In BrE, we always use the word "and" when speaking numbers. I believe in AmE, the "and" isn't necessarily used.
