Using ‘As… as’ to Describe Quantity

 

We use this common phrase to compare things of an equal quantity.

I have as many friends as her!    = We have the same number of friends.

I have as much money as him!   = We have the same amount of money

They don’t have as much time as us = We don’t have an equal amount of time. They have less.

As you can see, we use many with countable nouns and much with uncountable nouns.

as + many + (countable noun) + as
