How many stops to take refers to the number of stops that pass between the starting point and the end point when taking public transportation (such as buses and subways).

For example, if a bus starts from station A and passes through three stops B, C and D to reach station E, then passengers take four stops, because passengers start from station A, pass through three stops B, C and D, and finally reach station E. ..

It should be noted that if passengers get off at a certain station during the ride, then the station is not counted as the number of stops.
