numbers as adjectives
This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Saying your age in Spanish: Tener [número] años = To be [number] years old"

Hola Kaly,
I think you misread the sentence. It is saying:
¿Cuántos años tiene usted? - ___ cincuenta años. (How old are you? - I am fifty years old.)
You don't add -s at the end of the numbers to make it match with the plural noun (in this case "años"). It is already a plural adjective.
This lesson is dealing with this. Have a look here.
Saludos,
Inma
