Estimates vary from fantasy numbers up to 300,000 often classed as slaves.
Reality would favour about 10,000. These were farmers who were employed by pharaoh in the flood season, giving them a living when the Nile river plain was flooded each year, and they could not work their farms.
20,000
They used mallets,limestone,many workers, many years, and a dead person.

It is estimated that around 20,000 to 30,000 workers, not slaves, were employed to build the pyramid of Giza. These workers were likely skilled laborers, farmers, and craftsmen who were paid for their work. The common misconception of slaves being used to build the pyramids is largely inaccurate.
20,000
Researchers estimate that 2.3 million blocks were used to build the Great Pyramid!
the great pyramid was built by king khufu. he used large stones. He used thousands of slaves to build it.
Depends on the size of the pyramid but it always involved thousands. The ancient Greek historian and traveller Herodotus (c.450BC) was told by his guide that it took 100,000 slaves to build the Great Pyramid of Pharaoh Khufu. Diodorus Siculus who lived in the 1st century BC increased the number to 360,000. Modern estimates put the figure at 5,000 to 20,000.
