Approximately 500 million people in the world speak Spanish.
Explanation:
Spanish is the world's second-most spoken native language, after Chinese. It originated in the Iberian Peninsula and is a Romance language (which is a group of languages that evolved from Vulgar Latin; other examples are Italian and Portuguese). According to the last census in 2019, there are over <u>483 million native Spanish speakers, 72 million that speak Spanish as their second language, and around 22 million Spanish students.</u>
it came down to either "lo" or "la", lo is masculine and la is feminine. So the answer was lo because if there is no signs that the sentence is feminine then you just use the masculine word/s.
