• Use cien before a noun (even when it follows mil):

...a or one hundred soldiers... ...cien soldados... ...eleven hundred metres... ...mil cien metros...

! Don't translate numbers like eleven hundred literally. Translate their equivalent in thousands and hundreds instead.

• Use cien before mil and millón:

...a or one hundred thousand dollars... ...cien mil dólares... ...a or one hundred million lira... ...cien millones de liras...

• But use ciento before another number:

...a or one hundred and sixteen stamps... ...ciento dieciséis sellos...

• When hundred follows another number, use the compound forms (doscientos, -as, trescientos, -as ) which must agree with the noun:

...two hundred and fifty women... ...doscientas cincuenta mujeres...
