This is done by dividing the amount by 1,000.
| Old Leone | New Leone | Amount of zeros eliminated | eliminated |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1,000 | 1 | 000 | 1, |
| 2,000 | 2 | 000 | 2, |
| 5,000 | 5 | 000 | 5, |
| 10,000 | 10 | 000 | 10, |
| 20,000 | 20 | 000 | 20, |
To make it easier, write down the amount in old leone and eliminate the triple zero like this:
le1,000 ↔️ le1,000 you are left with le1
le2,000 ↔️ le2,000 you are left with le2
le3,000 ↔️ le3,000 you are left with le3
le100,000 ↔️ le100,000 you are center with le100
NLe3 is read as three new leones.
What if number doesn't end with zeros like this: le3,549,561? three million five hundred and forty nine thousand five hundred and sixty-one leones.
You can still use the same method above; now you replace the third digit --from right to left -- with point so that the third digit will fall under the cent category.
le3,549,561 ↔️ 3,549,561 ↔️ le3,549.56
