a) How much beans do you want in your plate ?

b)There's too many air in this bag of potato chips.

c)I only bought two breads.

d)She drank two coffee.

Answer 1

a) It's strange to use beans in plural when you refer to the amount of. It's more proper to use it in singular, as it follows:

How much bean do you want in your plate?

b) Too many is plural, whereas too much is singular, so the clause shall include how much to agree with air, which is in singular. Therefore:

There's too much air in this bag of potato ships

c) Bread is an uncountable noun in English. One form to correctly rewrite the sentence might include the noun piece, for instance, among others. Therefore:

I only bought two pieces of bread

d) It's quite strange to say that you drink "two coffees", because coffee can also refer to the coffee tree. It'd be more suitable if written as it follows:

She drank two cups of coffee
