A Number of is always followed by plural verb while The number of is always followed by singular verb.
E.g-> The number of people in this city is very cruel .
A number of people in this seminar are intelligent.
Onto is used in such cases :- On top of, to a position on , upon , also use when fully aware of, informed about.
e.g-> He climbed onto the roof.
I m onto your plan.
I postponed match when I realized He was onto our plan.
On to --> Here On is used as a part of verb , phrasal verb.....................
e.g--> Log on to the computer .
A common mistake is occurred during the use of which,that,this,who,those and these.
Who refers to people while that,which refer to group or things.
e.g-> Sachin is the one who retired from Indian cricket team.
Ravindra jadega belongs to Indian cricket team that has won world cup in 2011.
That is used to introduce essential clauses while Which is used in non-essential clauses.
e.g--> I don't use those products that are not natural.
I don't use artificial products , which appeared in TV channels.
which is preceded by commas due to non-essential clause because when we remove non-essential clause , then sentence makes a complete meaning.
If this,that,those,these are already used , then we may use which.
e.g-> that is a decision which you must live with.
The ratio of cost price and markd price is 5:8 and that of % profit on sale(s.p) to % discount is 2:3. Then find the % discount of mrkd price.. ?

whenever it's found him+him=whomever
he+him=whoever
Now , how to decide whether we have to use whomever or whoever??
e.g->Give the pen to whomever/whoever asks it for first.
now, we break sentence into two parts:-
Give the pen to him. He asks it for first.
so, whoever (him+he) is correct .
I will hire whoever/whomever you recommend.
I will hire him.you recommend him.
so, whomever is correct .
see the difference in other cases where the words are used as a subject and an object:-
Whomever you choose will serve as a team leader. ( here as an object)
whoever is chosen will serve as a team leader. (here as a subject)
who vs whom:-
who refers to he while whom refers to him.
e.g-> find the student who/whom stole the watch.
now, who stole the watch??
answer:- He stole the watch.
so, find the student who stole the watch.
e.g-> He is finding the student by who/whom the watch has been stolen.
now, by whom the watch has been stolen ?
answer:- The watch has been stolen by him.
so , He is finding the student by whom the watch has been stolen.
