400 billion
An average giant galaxy contains a trillion or more stars.
There are a lot of stars in our galaxy but then again im on 8 yrs old
An average dwarf galaxy contains few as ten million (107) stars.
No count of stars in any galaxy has been made. Estimates are given.Galaxies can contain as little as a few million stars or as many as trillions.NGC 1427A. A few billion maybe.
Over 100 billion just in ourgalaxy. So more than 100 billion stars in a galaxy!
Gas and dust were stripped away in collisions that also stripped away many young stars.

A galaxy. Ours is the milky way, which is a barrel galaxy. Answer- I think they are actually called star clusters. Galaxies contain much more than just stars. They contain stellar remnants, dust and gas, planets, and many other astronomical features.
Answer: These numbers are only estimates of course. Over the years estimates of the numbers of stars in our Galaxy has gradually increased. Good sources give various numbers ranging from about 200 billion up to 500 billion. I think the higher numbers are more likely to be correct. Our Milky Way Galaxy is, very roughly, average. So, a typical galaxy should contain a few hundred billion stars. Answer: It is very hard to give a "typical" number. The answer above refers mainly to our own galaxy, but there are lots of galaxies that are much, much smaller - and there are also giants that are much larger than our galaxy. Thus, a typical galaxy may contain anywhere between about 10 million stars, and a trillion (i.e., a million million) stars, although you'll probably find galaxies with more than that.
A dwarf galaxy can have a few million stars; a huge galaxy can have a trillion stars or more.
An elliptical galaxy is a type of galaxy not a particular one.
Yes. A galaxy contains many stars.
