word choice - “Time” versus “Times”: When is time plural? - English ...
Without an article, time is a mass noun referring to the experience of duration: Time and space are dimensions; In time, you'll come to realize. With an article, time is a count noun referring to an individual event. The time we tore the goalpost down,What is the time now? At the same time; A time to remember.
Use of the word 'off' to indicate a quantity
I might run off one or a dozen proof copies of a newspaper or a light-fitting, then run off as many more as are wanted this time. Thus the in-house trial might need the line to run 3 off and the next day’s production might call for 300 off, meaning nothing more arcane than run 300 off the line.

Since, perhaps forever, I had always ‘known’ that the English word salary was derived from the Latin salarium, to the time when Roman soldiers were paid in salt for their service. Salt was a highly-prized and sought-after commodity due to its ability to preserve food and was, in part, also responsible for the development of civilization.
Punctuation with units - English Language & Usage Stack Exchange
The numerical value always precedes the unit, and a space is always used to separate the unit from the number. The only exceptions to this rule are for the unit symbols for degree, minute, and second for plane angle, °, ′, and ″, respectively, for which no space is left between the numerical value and the unit symbol.
