Sometimes it depends on context, but to do something generally is to perform an action. To make something means to create something. For example, one can do one's homework (but you can't make homework--the problems you need to work on already exist). One can make dinner (the dinner doesn't yet exist--you need to prepare and cook the ingredients to create the dinner).

Three important cases:
- "do" as an auxiliary verb.
Examples: "Joe speaks Chinese." "Does Sam speak Chinese?" "Yes, he does." "No, he doesn't."
- "do" as a verb for actions that don't create anything.
Examples: do the shopping, do the laundry.
- "make" as a verb for actions that create something.
Examples: make coffee, make a cake, make a table, make noise.

How much time have you got ? It will depend on the circumstances
" Do you want a biscuit " and " I will make a cup of tea ? " The words "do " and "Make" could not be exchanged.
I think "make " is more often used when there is something built/changed, make a cake, make a car.
" Do ", as in " Do you want a biscuit " is often used in a question.
