If we are talking about one single carbon atom, then 4 hydrogen atoms can be bonded to a carbon atom, because there is 4 electrons in the valence shell, and a valence shell needs 8 electrons in total, which causes the carbon to have 4 open bonds. A hydrogen has only one electron in its valence shell of 2, and needs one more to complete it. So, each hydrogen connects to 1 of 4 bonds on the carbon to complete the valence electron.
Fun fact, CH4 is methane.

However, when both activity or notions are not done in the same way to be accurate, the individuals involved tend to do everything within their reach to amend them until they match uniformly which we can see in this case.
