A menorah has 7. But if you want to celebrate Hanukkah, you need a hanukkiah. The hanukkiah has 8 candles which you are not allowed to use except to look at them. The 9th is separated from the rest and is used as the worker candle. It lights all other candles. You place from right to left but light from left to right. I hope my answer is helpful.

A Hanukkah menorah (also called a hanukkiah) has eight candles, with another as shamash - the "assistant candle" that is used to light the others.
The structure of the hanukkiah reflects this: The shamash is not in line with the others; it is either above the other eight, or off to the side.
two candles are lit the 1st night, and each night, and additional candle is added, ending with 9 candles on the 8th night.
A total of 44 candles are used.

The main answer is usually 8. If you are wondering why the main reason that it lasts for 8 days, It is because the people that the people who then Reconstructed the Temple or the Maccabees had an Oil Shortage that they thought wasn't enough to light for more than 1 day. But another Miracle happened, and It lasted for 8 Days.

I says AL generally Nine Candle Menorah
When asking the number of candles are on a menorah, the most widely recognized answer is nine. This is on the grounds that today, the menorah is regularly connected with Hanukkah, the Jewish festival of the seven-day fight against the Greek-Syrians in which the Jews recovered their Second Temple.

Eight (not nine, as some mistakenly claim). Olive oil wicks are the best choice, not candles, though candles are certainly acceptable.
Another candle is added as a helper (to light the others and add more light), but this need not be part of the menorah itself. Even the ceiling light bulb can serve the purpose of adding light, and the menorah can be lit with matches or a lighter.
One candle is lit the first night (plus the helper [shamash]), and an additional one is added each night.
