Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error lies in the second part of the sentence.
"Much" should be replaced with "many", as "much" is used to refer to large quantities that are uncountable in nature, whereas "many" is used to refer to large quantities that are countable in nature. It should be "how many" in the sentence to convey the intended meaning of the sentence.
Therefore, the correct sentence is "Of the billions of stars in the galaxy, how many are suitable for life?"
