Amount or Number?

[rodrimuino]

Hi all.
I was making some statistics in an excel spreadsheet from a poll I sent to some employees.

I was asking myself which of these two phrases is correct? or which is the most convenient to write in a table of "Answers by manager"

Number of people who answered
Amount of people who answered
Number of people that answered
Amount of people that answered

Thanks!

"Number of people who answered" is what I would use.

You cannot have an amount of people.

Thanks Anglika!

What about "headcount" instead of "number of people"?

I wouldn't use it in this context.
