    Question Could we get balloons the size of a house to stay up for more than 100 days



    На 11 мин 08 сек он говорит (согласно их транскрипту) следующее:

    Could we get balloons the size of a house to stay up for more than 100 days, while costing less than five percent of
    what traditional, long-life balloons have cost to make?
    Мне слышится не:
    more than 100 days
    а так:
    more than a 100 days

    А вам?

    Мне тоже слышно "than a 100 days", но это же не урок английского, бывают оговорки, бывают просто звуки.

    Возможности:
    В речи:
    more than a hundred [скорее всего. Это он сказал]
    more than one hundred

    В тексте:
    more than one hundred
    more than 100 (скорее всего)
    more than a hundred

    Важно:
    "100" читается всегда как "one-hundred"
    "a 100" нету, было бы "a hundred"
