Practice vs Practise

In the United Kingdom, “practice” is the noun, “practise” the verb; but in the U.S. the spelling “practice” is commonly used for both, though the distinction is sometimes observed. “Practise” as a noun is, however, always wrong in both places: a doctor always has a “practice,” never a “practise.”

We may compare with the following explanation :

Practice is a noun
For example: We need to put these ideas into practice.

Practise is a verb
For example: To learn English well you have to practise.

Both of them is correct. We have to know when we use practice and practise
