Is it a mistake? In my text-book there is a sentence - Many people learn to play an instruments. Is the article "an" a misprint?

Yes, this is a mistake. You can correct it in two ways: Many people learn to play instruments. Many people learn to play an instrument. Good catch!

Yes. The word would work if “instruments” was not plural. The sentence also makes sense if “an” is removed.
