Nobody knows the exact number but so far Earth has 1, Mars has 2, Jupiter has 52, Saturn has 18, Uranus has 20, Neptune has 11, and Pluto has 3- that's a total of 107 moons- but there are probably many more. But if you mean large moons like earth's moon, there are only about 20 or 30.

A moon is a natural satellite rotating around a planet. While moons vary in size, each moon is much smaller than its planet. Almost 140 moons are known in the Solar System.
Several moons are larger than the planet Pluto and two moons are larger than the planet Mercury. There also are many small moons that may be asteroids captured by their planets.
