As many as asked.Technically, no Senator is supposed to serve on more than two major standing committees and no more than one minor standing committee. However, these rules are not strictly enforced; thus, we find some senators that serve on more than 3 standing committees altogether.
The US House currently has 23 active committees of which three are special committees and 20 are standing committees, which are divided into 104 sub-committees. The US Senate currently has 17 standing committees, which are divided into 70 sub-committees.

Yes, Experience in the Senate can be helpful to a President in many ways, depending somewhat on which committees he serves on. He may make some friends in the Senate who can help him as President. Senate exposure will make him better known to the public and may help help get elected.
