Spot the errors and rewrite the sentences correctly.

Answer:

There are many books in our school library.

• We use the word 'many' in the given sentence as it gives the proper meaning.
• Some nouns can be counted such as books, cars, pencils, etc whereas some cannot be counted such as rice, sugar, water, oil, etc.
• Use the word 'much' if the noun is non-countable. Example- much rice, much sugar.
• Use the word 'many' if the noun is countable. Example- many books, many pens.
• The noun word 'books' is a countable noun. Hence, use the word 'many' in the given blank.
