with the permission of the teacher !

im not sure but you can ask something like this:

How much time do you spend for walking each/per day?

---

Much is used for uncountable nouns like :bread,water,milk,money...

Many is used for countable nouns
like : flowers,cars,...

Yes. You can say


"How much time" but the first sentence was wrong because he put "time" . It does not need it.

It should be,

How long did you walk?

SSAT is the test that high school students take every year to see how well they're doing. Or like this information they're giving here,

What you said above is the result or requirement.
