Cuánto falta

Cuánto falta

"Cuánto falta?" means "how much longer".


Can't it also mean "how much do I owe you?"


For example, if you're paying for something with cash and you gave them some bills but still owe them a few coins to reach the total..?  (how many coins are still needed?)

Thank you!

Hola B. L 

Yes, in a way, you can also interpret it that way, so it's like saying: 

How much is it missing (to get to what I need to pay to you)? 

so you can say that in that sort of situation.

Saludos
