Guessing gets you through a quiz; understanding gets you through the exam. Read the full Few vs little lesson: 'Few' and 'a few' modify plural countable nouns; 'little' and 'a little' modify uncountable nouns. Crucially, 'a few/a little' mean a small but positive amount, while bare 'few/little' mean almost none, with a negative feel; adding or dropping the article completely reverses the meaning: 'a few friends' (some) versus 'few friends' (hardly any).
