   note: the word hundred, as well as thousand, million, etc.,
         often takes a plural form. we may say hundreds, or many
         hundreds, meaning individual objects or units, but with
         an ordinal numeral adjective in constructions like five
         hundreds, or eight hundreds, it is usually intended to
         consider each hundred as a separate aggregate; as, ten
         hundreds are one thousand.
