I think you meant "too many".
In connection with Two Factor verification codes:
It is sending a code to your trusted device or trusted telephone number. You then need to enter the code into the device into which you are trying to sign in. If you aren't receiving the codes then verify you are using a trusted device or number. You can only enter a code request a certain number of times before you have to wait until Apple will let you try again.
This is from the section "About trusted phone numbers and trusted devices" in the article: Two-factor authentication for Apple Account - Apple Support :
To see, add, or change your trusted phone numbers use one of these methods:
● On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Go to Settings > your name > Password & Security. Next to Trusted Phone Number, tap Edit.
● On a Mac computer choose Apple menu > System Settings (or System Preferences), then click your name (or Apple ID). Click Password & Security, then add or remove a trusted phone number.
● Using a web browser: Go to the Account Security section of https://account.apple.com .

If you had set up an Account Recovery Contact ( Set up an account recovery contact - Apple Support ) you can also get a code that way.
