Crossword Genius

Group of cabaret entertainers (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ten

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'group' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'of cabaret entertainers' is the wordplay.
'of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'TEN' is hidden in the letters of 'cabaret entertainers'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ten that I've seen before include "Base of decimal system" , "Figure" , "Cardinal number" , "How many" , "Roman numeral X" .)
