IBPS PO 2020 · Question 67 of 99
Error Detection
Option 1 is the correct answer. Key Points: 'Less' means "not as much". We use 'less' with uncountable nouns like 'milk' (denoting quantity). 'Few' means "not as many". We use 'few' with countable nouns like 'biscuits' (denoting number). Example sentences: Few biscuits are lying on the table. Could you give me less milk next time? Thus, 'few' will replace 'less' as people is a countable noun. Correct Usage: Few people have ever had the courage to ride an angry bull let alone a matador.
