Answer 1

19. There were not many people in the stadium because of the heavy rain.

Why is 'many' used to fill in the blank?

• In the English Grammar, we use 'many' when the number of things are countable.
• On the other hand, 'much' is used when the things are uncountable.
• As the number of person is countable, hence many will be used  to fill in the blank.
