The fingers (and toes) in anatomy are called digits. The visible parts are made up of three bones called phalanges (aside from the thumbs). The Distal Phalanx is the one in the tip of the finger, the Middle Phalanx is the one in the middle of the finger and the Proximal Phalanx is in the base of the finger. There is also another bone in each digit but is hidden the body of the Hand. These are called the Metacarpal bones and are long thin bones. These are not part of the digits.

To answer this directly: the number of bones in each finger is three except the thumb which has two. The same with the toes. The large toe has two and the others have three.
