Yes, all the outer planets have at least a dozen moons.
Astronomer have found many of the major moons of the outer planets, which are Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Neptune. However, they have not found all the possible moons associated with each of these planets. For example Jupiter has 50 known moons, and Saturn has 53 moons that are known so far.
Its unlikely that all of the moons of the other planets have been found, but certainly all of the major moons have now been discovered. Some of Saturns named moons are only a few km across, so there are likely to be some more moons of this sort of size that have yet to be officially recognised.
The inner and outer planets are alike in that they are all part of our solar system and orbit around the Sun. They also have varying sizes and compositions, with the inner planets being smaller and rocky while the outer planets are larger and gaseous. Additionally, they all have moons, but the outer planets tend to have more and larger moons compared to the inner planets.
Because when they are close to the sun first of all they are are smaller so if they had a moon the moon would have to be kinda small. And also the planets close to the sun are made to be able to get to high temperatures. Earth can't get satellites to Mercury and a moon is related to the satellites and the moon would burn up in the heat. All mass has gravity. The inner planets cannot "hang on" to their moons due to their lack of mass, therefore they are unable to overcome the suns gravitational affect on the moons which would pull them into the sun. The outer planets can "hang on" to their moons and attract more because of their mass (therefore gravity). The distance from the sun has less of an impact on these moons, therefore, the sun cannot pull any of the moons away from the outer planets. Also, the outer planets are "kind of" moon magnets due to their gravitational pull.
No, not all planets have the same number of moons. For example, Mercury and Venus have no moons, Earth has one moon, Mars has two moons, while Jupiter has over 70 moons. The number of moons can vary from planet to planet.
Yes. All four of the outer planets have multiple moons.
the inner plants have a total of three moons. our moon, and two moons of mars. Phobos, and Deimos. but the out planets have many more moons. Neptune has the least amount of moons out of all the outer planets. it has 13 moons. but, the other outer planets have way more. Jupiter even has 63. of course, there are probably many more moons still to be discovered. well, not for earth and mars. in total, the outer planets must have at least 100 moons.
Oh no, it is the outer planets which have the most moons. Terrestrial planets such as Earth have relatively few moons.

All of the inner planets; Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars have less than 3 moons, while all four outer gas giant planets have many moons.
many moons.

The inner planets do not have many moons because what could become moons is usually trapped by one of the outer planets gravitational pull, lost in the asteroid belt, or crashes into the inner planets.

All outer planets have a gaseous atmosphere and are larger than planets the inner planets it also takes them longer to rotate the sun they are typically colder and have more moons.
