What’s 100,50€

  1. In Germany, the comma is used as a decimal separator (and the point / full stop to group thousands). So it is 100 Euros and 50 Cents.

  2. Many countries/languages use commas instead of dots to denote fractions, if that’s what you’re confused about.

  3. As others have said, the comma is a decimal separator.

    This is an example of a bad translation. The correct translation of “100,50 €” is “€100.50” (although there is now a trend in English for writing the currency symbol after the figures; this isn’t yet standard, however); you have to translate not only *words*, but also *everything else*, including punctuation, mathematical symbols, and so on.

    But this comes as no surprise. The translation is in general pretty terrible, and even the punctuation is incredibly sloppy. Even Google Translate would have done a better job of this; this is not a good advert for a business school.
