Answer:
Regarding one hundred or a hundred etc, the person saying that there is a difference is right - one is used more for precision but a is more common and employed. "I have a thousand, three hundred and thirty-one staff" sounds better if you say "one thousand..." as it is a precision.

The examples both correct. Which one you use is mostly a matter of preference, although a hundred appears more frequently than one hundred. There is also another form, an hundred, which was common in the past, but has mostly fallen out of use. The second or third version is correct in my opinion.
