Numbers and Quantity

Numbers 1-20 are the base for counting; larger round numbers combine tens (twenty, thirty...) with ones. Use "How many" for countable nouns and "How much" for uncountable nouns.

Examples

• I have three brothers.
• There are twenty students in the class.
• How many apples do you want?
• How much water do you need?
• The ticket costs fifteen dollars.
