It was not accepted when I wrote "den" before "femte" in this sentence: "Det är femte gången du ringer mig i dag." I do not see any structural difference between "den femte gången" and "det nionde huset". So, when do we use "den/det/de" before the ordinal numbers when they are followed by a noun, as well?
there is a bit explanation on the skill "adjectives 1". especially the section "definite forms": https://www.duolingo.com/skill/sv/Adjectives-1 i hope that helps.

Would "Vi bor i nionde huset" be correct, too? If yes, does it sound better or worse without the "det"?
