In the news you'd only hear 三百一十五 but in general 三百十五 is understood just as well.

Yes ....I got confused with yī whilst translating
Can someone please let us know why is yī mentioned in this sentence
I think only the zero is necessary: 305 would be 三百零五. I live in China and I never hear the 一 in 三百一十五 when they say prices. I always hear the zero however.
As Drinc mentioned, it's context dependent-- it's definitely not necessary and not used in most informal/oral contexts.
块 is a classifier word for currency and I believe can be applied to any currency, not specifically Yuan.

My voice was not accepted either, always fails on "yi shi wu kuai". My Chinese girlfriend's voice was also refused twice here. This exercise is broken.

This is just my opinion, so please take it with a grain of salt. Rather than practicing your pronunciation with the Duo, I think it is better to dictate to Google Voice, and see if it can produce the characters for what you tried to say. If it does or mostly does, then that's plenty good enough. At least you'll see some feedback about what character(s) you may have missed
However Google Voice is not perfect either. It will at times mis-transcribe native Mando speakers as well

I also cannot get this to accept my voice answer and it won't let me complete the lesson as a result, it just keeps repeating the same voice question which will not accept my answer.
Same problem here cant finish the lesson as it wont accept voice answer.

I tried it few times and then before losing all my hearts I chose that I can't use my microphone so it skipped it. This option is at least on android.
I ended up just testing to the next level but I managed to get past it.
Same problem here but I was able to get past it by repeating all characters twice. San san bai bai yi yi... etc. Please still report it though.
Creative and extremely helpful solution. Now I can actually use the practice feature
"315 kuai" should also be accepted. "Kuai" is common usage in everyday speech for both Chinese and foreigners who have lived in China for any length of time.
Why is 15 suddenly yi shi wu instead of just being shi wu. I can understand maybe both are used, but DL marked shi wu as wrong and insists that i use yi shi wu

Hm...I failed the speaking test for this one. So I cheated and had my partner, a native Chinese speaker, do it. He also failed. I think there may be something up with how the program registers the "一十五块"
I thought mandarin would be similar with 福建话, we usually say 315 as “三百一五” or "三百十五“,
块 in Chinese usually is a wide signifier for currency in general, not applied to just the Chinese yuan. Other currencies should be accepted as valid answers.
While there are hundreds of currencies in the world, adjusting this for the more common referrals like the dollar would go a long way.
that's a pity, that we can pick only 315 because there is no other choice it would be better to have more options
Audio not accepted. I even RECORDED the sample audio on another phone and played it back as a response. Still not accepted!!
If 一 is not necessary, then they should accept both answers as correct, the one without and the one with 一
The app wont understand me and ive heen speaking chinese for years. I know im not saying it wrong.

I have no idea what went wrong with this but it did not accept my answer over and over again until it ate up all my hearts. I know for a fact I was speaking correctly, I speak Mandarin relatively well, my Chinese husband even spoke into the phone. It was always the last part of the phrase that wasn't registering. That kinda made me mad that I had to use up hearts and gems over one stupid phrase and now can't move on when it's obviously not our issue.

You have the option to skip speaking exercises during the lesson (skips them for an hour) or you can turn them off from the settings.

Just curious if it was $3.15 in US currency, how that would be said in Mando?

Agree with Yellow teapot, the recognition is really bad right now. I had to mumble a couple different ways just to try to fake it
It's not accepting my spoken answer (with this short sentence, not difficult to pronounce) no matter how many times I repeat it... this has not happened to me before in 9 months of practice. Has anyone else had this problem?
I get it, now that I read everyone's earlier comments... everyone is having the same problem, obviously a glitch with the software... Duolingo, are you paying attention???

yeah, I've read this very clearly, but Duo keeps getting it wrong. And after that, I only read YI SHI WU KUAI and Duo got it right
