Explicación:
Much se utiliza cuando estamos hablando de un sustantivo singular. Se usa para cosas que no puedes contar, es decir para cosas incontables.
Many se utiliza cuando estamos hablando de un sustantivo plural.
A lot of se usa tanto con nombres contables como incontables para indicar mucha cantidad, la diferencia con “much” y “many” es que “a lot of” se utiliza en oraciones afirmativas.
Con sustantivos contables, se utiliza siempre few, mientras que little se usa con los incontables.
Pienso que es así
