Infinitely many.I will use a variant of Zeno's paradox to illustrate this.Before you can drive a mile you must drive half a mile. So the event of driving a mile can be split into two sub-events of driving half a mile.But before you can drive half a mile you must drive a quarter of a mile. So the event of driving each half of a mile can be split into two sub-events of driving a quarter of a mile - making 4 sub-events in all.And then each of them can be split into two and so on, and on.Infinitely many.I will use a variant of Zeno's paradox to illustrate this.Before you can drive a mile you must drive half a mile.
