Hi there,
I am new here on this website and I have a question about the difference between the use of "as much" and "as many as" and if someone can help me I will be so grateful in advance. Thus, if you could answer in English and in Portuguese thank you in advance.

As many as pode servir também pra enfatizar uma quantidade que vem em seguida.
Ex.:
He now earns as many as 900 bitcoins per week in the market. (no idea if this is a lot of money, just make believe)
(Ele agora ganha nada menos que/ algo na ordem de _____)
As much as / much as, por sua vez, pode ter valor concessivo.
Ex.:
(As) much as I'd want to, I cannot start yoga while being a CEO at Instagram. Not ethically.
(Por mais que quisesse)

As much as to "uncountable" things, whereas "as many as" to countable:
Just stay in your room as much as you can.
I will learn as much as I can around here.
Try to learn as many facts as possible. (facts in this context is countable, say, in a history lesson).
Can I have an apple, please?
Have as many as you need.
My answer is in terms of "as many as" vs "as much as".
