A few hundreds/hundreds

[goodstudent]

"I have a) b) c) of bags that I bought for my own use."

Which one is correct?
a) a few hundreds
b) a few hundred
c) hundreds


Thanks

B and C both fit.

[goodstudent]

Does B and C both mean the same thing? Would a person assume B is more than C because B has the words "a few"?

[emsr2d2]

There is no way of telling how many they mean. For me "a few hundred" would probably mean 300-900. "Hundreds" could be 200-900. I would be more likely to use "a couple of hundred" to mean 200 but that doesn't mean everyone would.

"B" doesn't work with the "of" there.

"B" doesn't work with the "of" there.

You are completely correct! I didn't see it there at all and thought C said "hundreds of".

Goodstudent, please disregard my previous answer. Only C is correct.
