The theory is that you use fewer for countable things and less for uncountable things. For example fewer coins but less money; fewer teeth but less hair; fewer bananas but less fruit; fewer hats but less clothing. [You may have 6 coins, 25 teeth, 12 bananas and 7 hats but the other things don't go with numbers.)

Is the correct process for the clue words less or fewer?

The correct process for using "less" or "fewer" depends on whether you are referring to countable or uncountable nouns. Use "fewer" for countable items (e.g., fewer apples) and "less" for uncountable quantities (e.g., less water). A helpful tip is to remember that if you can count the items individually, use "fewer"; if not, use "less."
