Choose the most appropriate word to fill in the blank.

There are _____________ rooms in the new guest house than in the older one.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

Rooms are countable, and the sentence makes a comparison using than, so the comparative for countable nouns, fewer, is required. Less and lesser go with uncountable quantities, and few lacks the comparative form needed with than.
