It depends on the species of monkey! There is considerable variety.

Here are a few monkey diploid chromosome numbers:

capuchin monkey 54

owl monkey male 49; female 50

red howler monkey 47, 48, or 49 (an unusual system!)

rhesus monkey 42

squirrel monkey 44

How does DNA evidence support the claim that chimps are the most closely related to humans?

You can see that chimps are related to humans from DNA. We share about 98% of the nucleotides with chimps. The ERV's between chimps and humans are reverse transcripted into both creatures in the same spots and that is not plausible by anything but a relationship with them. The Chromosomes are identical except for chromosome #2 in humans and that shows a fusion of two chromosomes from our ancestors. Chimps along with all of our primate cousins are going extinct. Like in comparative morphology, comparative genomics shows that in the nested hierarchies, chimps have the most homologies and the fewest differences in a nucleotide by nucleotide comparison of the genome.
