1. talking about a greater number or amount

You use more or more of to talk about a larger number of people or things, or a larger amount of something.

You use more in front of a noun which does not have a determiner, such as 'the' or 'a', or possessive, such as 'my' or 'our', in front of it.

There are more people going to university than ever before.
They were offered more food than they needed.

You use more of in front of a pronoun, such as us or it, or in front of a noun which has a determiner or possessive in front of it.

There are more of them looking for work now.
I've read more of his novels than anybody else's.
2. talking about an additional number or amount

You also use more or more of to talk about an additional number of people or things, or an additional amount of something.

More police officers will be brought in.
We need more information.
More of the land is needed to grow crops.
I ate some more of her cookies.
3. used with modifiers

You can use words such as some and any and expressions such as a lot in front of more and more of.

We need to buy some more milk.
I don't want to take up any more of your time.
She plans to invite a lot more people.

These words and expressions can be used in front of more and more of when they are followed by a plural form:

any far lots many no
several some a few a good many a great many
a lot  

These words and expressions can be used in front of more and more of when they are followed by an uncountable noun or a singular pronoun:

any far lots much no
rather some a bit a good deal a great deal
a little a lot  

Be Careful!
Don't use 'many', 'several', 'a few', 'a good many', or 'a great many' in front of more or more of when they are followed by an uncountable noun or a singular pronoun. Don't say, for example, 'I need a few more money.' Say 'I need a bit more money' or 'I need a little more money'.

4. 'more than'

If you want to say that the number of people or things in a group is greater than a particular number, you use more than in front of the number.

Police arrested more than 70 people.
He had been awake for more than forty-eight hours.

When you use more than in front of a number and a plural noun, use a plural form of a verb after it.

More than 100 people were injured.

5. used in comparatives

More is also used in front of adjectives and adverbs to form comparatives.
