Query under-"Un dîner d'automne au restaurant' The correct response is below

The difference is the same as in English: une glace de marrons -- an ice cream made from chestnuts (the main ingredient is chestnuts)

une glace aux marrons -- an ice cream made with chestnuts (chestnuts are not the main ingredient)

This nuance wasn't clear from the lesson above. How does one distinguish 'from' versus 'with' in such cases?

Sa mère et moi l'avons seulement assistée avec les démarches administratives.

“Sa mère et moi l'avons seulement assistée avec les démarches administratives.”. Hi, ”sa mère” (mother is female) “et moi” (“moi” is the father, who is male) “avons assistée” (first-person plural passé composé). We have a mixture of male and female forming the “we”, so should the past participle be “assisté” and not “assistée”? Thanks.

101, 201, etc

Would you use "et" for numbers over 100 (e.g. 101, 201, 1001, etc.)?

Cent un, or cent et un, or cent-et-un?

Thank you for your help.

elles m'ont quand même forcée à faire tous les rayons !

Hi. Regarding the Ikea (C1) exercise https://french.kwiziq.com/my-languages/french/exercises/judge/1046/12894963?response=2395393&page=8
It links to this lesson and gives the best answer as "elles m'ont quand même forcée à faire tous les rayons !".
Why would it be forcée and not forcé in this case? Wouldn't it be the same as the indirect object pronouns shown in this lesson?
