Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
There are _____ students in class today than yesterday.
Solution
✅ Correct Option: 2
'Students' is a countable noun, and comparisons of countable quantities require 'fewer', not 'less' or 'lesser', which go with uncountable nouns. 'A few' cannot be followed by 'than'. So 'fewer students... than yesterday' is correct.
