One hundred one, one hundred two, one hundred three...one twenty-five, one twenty-six, and so on

One oh one, one oh two, one oh three...one twenty-five, one twenty-six, and so on.
Hi Pat...this is the way I usually count above one hundred. Granted, this may be a learned, or self-taught, way of counting since my first sales job involved counting stock inventory in drug stores every day, so counting quickly came with the territory*, but it is an way of counting without the "and" that can be easily understood.
* just like counting in cases became second nature. My products we packed in cases of 12, so it was much easier to count 2,4,6,8,10 ONE, 2,4,6,8,10 TW0, 2,4,6,8,10 THREE, 2,4,6,8,10 FIVE, and so on.
Believe it or not, it's a lot easier to get the count right when you portion into small categories/numbers.
