Can someone help me??? I need help on a question. I will give a metal for your help.:)

Question

anonymous · Answer

Which word correctly completes the sentence?

They appear to need __________ reminders than we do.



A. less

B. fewer

anonymous · Answer

B fewer.

anonymous · Answer

yes, fewer

you use less when referring to things that cannot be counted, such as time and numerical values

for example:
You can pay less for store brand items.
or
The silence lasted for less than a minute.

Fewer is used for things that contain a plural.

in your case, reminders works

other examples:

People are purchasing fewer books.

or

Fewer people are using flip phones every year.

Hope that helps! :)
