Is it correct to say as less possible?

No, it's not grammatically correct to say "as less possible." The correct phrase is "as little as possible" or "as few as possible."

Here's why:

* "Less" is used for things that are uncountable (e.g., time, money, water).

* "Little" is used for things that are uncountable.

* "Few" is used for things that are countable (e.g., people, apples, mistakes).

Examples:

* "I want to spend as little money as possible." (Money is uncountable)

* "Try to make as few mistakes as possible." (Mistakes are countable)

So, instead of saying "as less possible," choose the appropriate word based on whether the item is countable or uncountable.
