Error correction

(a) It can rain tonight.

Correct : It may rain tonight.

'Can' is an auxiliary verb that expresses a chance. 'May' is also an auxiliary verb that expresses a probability. For the given sentence, 'may' is the correct auxiliary verb.

(b) The cattles were grazing in the field.

Correct : The cattle are grazing in the field.

'Cattle' is a collective noun by itself. So it is a plural word. There is no need to add an 's' in cattle.

(C) Each of the boys play cricket.

Correct : Each of the boys plays cricket.

Each is a singular entity, hence the verb in agreement will express the singularity. Thus the correct verb is 'plays'.

(d) How much money you need?

Correct : How much money do you need?

The given sentence is an interrogative one. Thus a verb expressing the interrogation is required. This verb is 'do'.

(e) When you do your homework?

Correct : When do you do your homework?

The given sentence is an interrogative one. Thus a verb expressing the interrogation is required. This verb is 'do'.

(f) I do not know to do it.​

Correct :  I do not know how to do it.​

The given sentence asserts in the negative of not knowing the method of doing it. Thus the word 'how' is necessary to express the method of action.
