Surah Al-Maidah (5:12) Quran.com
وَبَعَثْنَا مِنْهُمُ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ نَقِيبًا And Allah had already taken a covenant from the Children of Israel, and We delegated from among them twelve leaders. And Allah said, "I am with you. If you establish prayer and give zakah and believe in My messengers and support them and loan Allah a goodly loan, I will surely remove from you your misdeeds and admit you to gardens beneath which rivers flow. But whoever of you disbelieves after that has certainly strayed from the soundness of the way." (Sahih International)
Surah Al-Muddathir (74:30) Quran.com
عَلَيْهَا تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ Over it are nineteen [angels]. (Sahih International)
Surah Yusuf (12:4) Quran.com
إِذْ قَالَ يُوسُفُ لِأَبِيهِ يَا أَبَتِ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ أَحَدَ عَشَرَ كَوْكَبًا [Of these stories mention] when Joseph said to his father, "O my father, indeed I have seen [in a dream] eleven stars and the sun and the moon; I saw them prostrating to me." (Sahih International)
Surah At-Tawbah (9:36) Quran.com
This is the end of the list. عَشَر was only mentioned 4 times in the Quran. إِنَّ عِدَّةَ الشُّهُورِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ اثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ Indeed, the number of months with Allah is twelve [lunar] months in the register of Allah [from] the day He created the heavens and the earth; of these, four are sacred. That is the correct religion, so do not wrong yourselves during them. And fight against the disbelievers collectively as they fight against you collectively. And know that Allah is with the righteous [who fear Him]. (Sahih International)
