As many as needed;
panel capacities are different from each other in amps and space. there should be a sticker on the door of the panel that tells of how many breakers can be installed in that panel. regarding the amps, a load calculation can be made to determine the full load used on such a panel.

The number of circuits you can have on a 200 amp service depends on the load of each circuit. As a general rule of thumb, you can have up to 40-50 circuits on a 200 amp service panel, but this can vary based on the specific requirements of your electrical system and local codes. It's important to consult with a licensed electrician to determine the appropriate number of circuits for your installation.
In the United States, there isn't a hard limit on how many 20 amp circuits that can be run on a 50 amp supply. This is because in most cases, especially in homes, we don't load most circuits with more than an amp or 2, even when they are protected by a 20 amp breaker. From a practical perspective you probably have a limited number of slots for breakers in your service or supply panel.
You can install a maximum of two 50 amp breakers feeding 50 amp outlets from a 125 amp main panel. Each 50 amp breaker is using half of the available amperage from the main panel.
Yes, you can feed a 60 amp sub panel from another 60 amp sub panel as long as the total connected load does not exceed 60 amps. Make sure to properly size the wire and protect the circuits with appropriate breakers to ensure safe operation of the sub panel.
You can install a 100 amp sub panel off a 60 amp main panel fed by 100 amp service. This allows for the sub panel to be adequately powered with headroom for future circuits or expansions. It is important to ensure the wire size from the main panel to the sub panel is sufficient to handle the load.
