decagross

1440, ten gross, or 10 x 12 dozen, or 10 x 144. Many younger people will not be familiar with the word gross as often used in the past particularly for packaging. I introduced the term "decagross' to a group of journalists and librarians and they all "knew" the meaning but were surprised that the word did not exist in any dictionary. I might add that these people were all over 70. A university maths lecturer told me that no one under 60 would have a clue. I coined the word when I asked how many units a cabinet for programming I pads for an art gallery held. I was told 1440.

Cheaper by the dozen or cheaper by the gross. Hence deca plus gross becomes decagross
