"Much" is a quantifier and used to describe mass nouns or noncount nouns, such as bread, sleep, pride, and happiness.
First of all, what is a noncount noun? A noncount noun is a noun that cannot be counted or pluralized. Noncount nouns are also known as mass nouns.
When we combine "much" with a noncount noun then we can create a sentence that describes quantity.

- How much flour do we need to make these cookies?
- How much juice should we buy?
- How much coffee do you consume a day?
Now, let's explore "Much" when it's used with singular form "it" or "was". "How much" can also be used when we want to know the price of something.
In this case, we can use "How much" with countable nouns (both singular and plural nouns).
