@jyotisaroj Extract the value of the choice list variable in a business rule/server side script. Run a for/while loop to generate required number of tasks can be generated.

Here is an example script for a business rule.

if (current.variables.quantity) {
    var quantity = parseInt(current.variables.quantity);
    for (var i = 1; i <= quantity; i++) {
        var task = new GlideRecord('sc_task');
        task.initialize();
        task.request_item = current.sys_id;
        task.short_description = 'Generated Task ' + i;
        task.assignment_group = 'REPLACE_WITH_GROUP_SYS_ID';
        task.insert();
    }
}
