Explanation
We ask about the house number: “What number is your house?” Answer: “It’s number 23.” Rooms: a kitchen, a living room, a bedroom, a bathroom. We ask how many rooms: “How many rooms do you have?” Answer: “We have five rooms: a kitchen, a living room and three bedrooms.” Favourite room: “My favourite room is the kitchen. I help my mum there.” Reporting about another person: “Sanjar’s house number is 9. He has four rooms.” Remember: with he/she we use has instead of have.
