When you’re trying to figure out whether to use who or whom, it helps to know the difference between subjects and objects because you use who when you’re referring to the subject of a clause and whom when you’re referring to the object of a clause. In other words, who is a subject pronoun and whom is an object pronoun.
The word β€œnoise” is both a countable and uncountable noun.

πŸ’Ž As a countable noun, you can put a number before it, and make it plural by adding an -s at the end: β€œWe heard three noises.”

πŸ’Ž As an uncountable noun, it appears in the singular, and represents something that can’t be counted: "There was noise coming from the front tire."
