Doubts on electric field lines and flux

[caption id="" align="alignright" width="180"]English: Field of a positive point charge. Thu... English: Field of a positive point charge. Thumbnail version (Photo credit: Wikipedia)[/caption]

Q1.Is the number of electric feild lines due to a charge DEFINITE?
Q2.If it is infinite, then the electric flux due to a charge should be infinite(flux gives the num. Of elctric feild lines passing through an area)?
AND
Flux should be equal irrespective of the magnitude of charge.
Q3.If it is definite,then it will always be a natural number and cannot be a decimal,but when we take out flux for an Electron,it yeilds a decimal value.
E.flux~ magn. Of charge
