Italian particle ci + particle ne

When the Italian  particle ci and ne are together, they form the object pronoun ce ne, example: Quante uova ci vogliono per la carbonara? Ce (= volerci) ne (= di uova) vuole una ogni 2 persone. Quante scarpe hai messo nella scarpiera? Ce (= nella scarpiera) ne (= di scarpe) ho messe 20.
