Let's solve this step-by-step. The task is to
circle the correct choice between
"How much" and
"How many" for each sentence.
---
🔍 Rule Reminder:
- Use
"How many" with
countable nouns (things you can count: apples, books, cats).
- Use
"How much" with
uncountable nouns (things you cannot count individually: water, time, money, rice, milk).

Now let’s go through each question:
---
1.
How much / How many apples are there on the table?
→ "Apples" =
countable (you can count them)
✔ How many
2.
How much / How many stars are there in the sky?
→ "Stars" =
countable (even though there are many, they are individual objects)
✔ How many
3.
How much / How many time do we need?
→ "Time" =
uncountable (we don’t count time in units like "one time, two times")
✔ How much
4.
How much / How many water is in that glass?
→ "Water" =
uncountable (liquid, not countable)
✔ How much
5.
How much / How many books have you got?
→ "Books" =
countable
✔ How many
6.
How much / How many money can we spend?
→ "Money" =
uncountable (we say "how much money", not "how many money")
✔ How much
7.
How much / How many cats are there in the garden?
→ "Cats" =
countable
✔ How many
8.
