If you read this thread you will see the use of
ciento cuarenta y cinco...
cienta cuarenta y cinco...
followed by a feminine noun is confusing even to natives.
ciento o cienta with feminine noun
Gender: As indicated above, the italicized portions of numbers vary according to gender. When a number ends in -uno ("one"), the form -un is used before masculine nouns, and -una before feminine nouns. The uno form is used only in counting. Accent marks are used where needed to maintain the correct pronunciation. The hundreds portions of numbers change in gender even when other parts of the number intervene before the noun.
Examples: un coche (1 car), una casa (1 house), veintiún coches (21 cars), veintiuna casas (21 houses), doscientos coches (200 cars), doscientas casas (200 houses), doscientos dos coches (202 cars), doscientas dos casas (202 houses).
ciento cuarenta y cinco = 145 Ciento= 100 Cuarenta= 40 y = and Cinco = 5
145 - ciento cuarenta y cinco
cienta cuarenta y cinco
