Jan 6, 2017 at 4:09 comment added jitendragarg @Cascabel I checked EnglishForums.com and other results on google. I mentioned the same here. 'As per other forums, "this many" works when talking about specific number. But I don't see any example of the same. If I have specific number, then use of "many" is not even justified.'
