How many dolls does Sarah have? K
In a simple present tense sentence, a letter "s" must be added to most verbs, in your example the auxiliary verb "does" already complies with the rule, therefore, the main verb "have" remains in its base form

Yes.

NOTE: Am I right)
Both, "Am" and "I" should be capital letters. "Am" for it is the opening word in the sentence. "I" must always be written with capital letter regardles of its position in a sentence.

God Bless you.

How many: Count nouns (things that can be counted).
How much: Non-count nouns (things that can not be counted).

A good dictionary will show count and non-count nouns, I would suggest for you to look for a dictionary that includes that feauture in its entries.

God bless you.
