How many Gods are there?

Last night we were reading My First Book of Questions and came to questions 16 and 17:

16. How many Gods are there?
There is only one God. (Isaiah 45:5, Deuteronomy 6:4)
17. How many persons are there in the one God?
Three persons (Matthew 28:19)
When I read question 17, Elisabeth answered,
"Three, like me."
Clearly I need to help her understand that "How many persons . . .?" is different from "How old are you?"
