Infinitely

Hello,

1. A linear equation in /with two variables has infinitely many solutions.

Which preposition is more natural between (in/with)?

"infinitely" being an adverb must modify a verb/adjective/adverb.
Is 'infinitely" modifying "many" in the (1)?

Could any one here help me?

Thanks.

If that were true then infinitely many solutions would be impossible: many is a determinative.

(Adverbs can also modify NPs and PPs.)

1. In my opinion, "in" is the correct preposition here.
