Two. (They are attached at the ileum).

The intestines are the portion of the digestive tract between stomach and the anus. They are divided into two major sections: small intestine and large intestine.

The small intestine averages 20 feet long. It is coiled in the center of the abdominal cavity. It is divided into 3 sections: upper, jejunum, and ileum. The lining of the small intestine secretes a hormone called secretin, which causes the pancreas to produce digestive enzymes.

The large intestine is wider but is only about 5 ft. long. The large intestine is divided into 6 parts: cecum, ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and rectum.
