"était" versus "c'était"In writing challenge week 68 B2, one of the correct answers is "Oui, je crois que la dernière fois, c’était chez Paul et Sophie." as opposed to "Oui, je crois que la dernière fois était chez Paul et Sophie." What are the rules for using c'est and its variations when in the middle of a sentence?

Do we say the word cent after the "cents"In the sound files in this lesson it sounds like they are saying the word "cent" after the cents for currency. Is that correct? I went back to the lesson on decimals and they don't pronounce it that way on that lesson or am I just hearing it wrong? Example Ça coûte 1,20 € le litre. They appear to say "un euro vingt cent". Thanks

Does one ever use "Deux et deux font quatre" or "Deux et deux égal/égale quatre"?I'm just wondering if "et" is used rather than "plus", or if that's an outmoded thing (or if the book I have is totally wrong...).

A la montagne versus dans la montagne?I have a question based on a test I took. It stated that one would say..."pour aller skier a la montagne" ("to go and ski in the mountains"). Why is it, a la montagne and not dans la montagnes?
