unos cuarenta(s) países

"Yo visité unos cuarentas países cuando era joven" (taken from a test, correct answer), pero "unos ochenta minutos". 

I would have expected that "unos cuarenta países" is correct. Why isn't it?

Hola C.R

I checked your result page and I think you may have misread the feedback. On your test today, you chose "unos cuarentas" that is showing as incorrect in red, the one you chose, and the answer saying "unos cuarenta" is showing as correct by the system in green. 

I hope this clarified it.

Saludos
