Solution
The correct option is A Many
Option B is the correct answer because we use 'many' with plural countable nouns to indicate a large number, like battles. We use 'much' with noncountable nouns to indicate a large quantity. Since 'battle' is a countable noun, option A is an incorrect answer.As we don't have enough information from the passage if Ashoka had waged battles against all of his enemies, option C has to be considered incorrect.We use a few to suggest a small quantity or not much of something. Since it is a fact that Ashoka did wage many significant battles, option D is incorrect as well.
