This one is a "gimme"..... If you were to count by spelling out the numbers,(i.e., "one" instead of "1", "two" instead of "2", "three" instead of "3", etc.), what is the first number that contains the letter "a"?

There is no total, in fact there is no math required here at all!! What is the first number (spelled out) to contain the letter "a"?

One hungred And one is, in my opinion, technically correct. FYI, the book I seen this question in looonnngggggg time ago listed the answer as "one thousAnd". So, according to the book, Emily is correct as well. But I agree with Ted14621.
