Average galaxy has around 200 billion stars. A few hundred billion galaxies have been discovered. So the answer is one of those really high numbers that nobody knows the name of.

It depends on where you are and the light pollution but I have heard that there are roughly 8000 objects that can be seen with the naked eye. If you use a little magnification (binoculars), that number goes up a lot. If you use a bigger telescope, you can see more stars.
If you are talking about how many total, that is a very large number (although we can not know really). The farther away the star is, the longer ago that light left that star. Because the distances are so vast, all we know is that there were stars far far away long long ago. We can not know if those stars are still there because it will take millions of years for the light to reach earth.

If I reframe ur Question as how many stars can a person see WITHOUT the telescope ? , then i would say 7000 stars .A chart of the milky way was made by two swedish artists who spent years dotting those 7000 individual stars on a photograph. Out of the 7000 stars, 25 r the brightest. We can see the stars not because of their TRUE BRILLIANCE but because of their APPARENT BRILLANCE . For example, Alpha Cygni " Deneb " (58,000 times brighter than our sun) is actually the brightest of the all the stars but ranks 19 because it is so far away ,1630 light years .
But if u ask how many stars r there in the sky ? Then i would say that there r more than trillions of trillions of stars out there (if u take the whole universe into consideration), out of which many r not discovered yet .

If you could read the actual number of stars on a very long long piece of paper it would take billions and bllions of years to read the exact number.

It's like...over 100 stars. I am guessing since we didn't cover that in Republican politician school sos we don't sound so dumb in public.

there's no proper amount for that because star might be produce every hour or so. this is because when two rocks hit each other, the pieces will form starts I believed. hmmm..

that's as hard as asking "how many cells exist on the planet Earth?"
