Which one of you?
Hi everyone! could you tell me and correct my understandings about these sentences?
Situation-A group of 20 peoples is standing in front of me and I ask them.
Which one of you has a car?or Which of you has a car? (Are these both same? According to me these two mean
that I am asking about that one person who has a car? Is my understanding correct?
And now if I want to ask about more than one person who have cars in the group, how should I say this.
Here is my try-
Which peoples of you have cars.(Is it correct?) Please help me in this matter and tell me in which possible ways I can ask this question?
Thanks!

I'm not quite sure if there's a difference between which one of vs. which of you, I guess someone else has yet to clear up these ones (which one sounds better to my ears, though). Anyway, by that sentence you're trying to find who, a specific person , out of those 20 people, has the keys.

- Basically you're already asking the group as a whole, you're not talking to only one person.
- Thus, your answer to another question is still this sentence.
