Morphology
plentitude = plenty (transparent) = plenti + tude
The word is formed from the common noun 'plenty' with the noun-forming suffix '-tude', so the meaning 'state/quality of abundance' is directly inferable.
Etymology
The word plentitude comes from the same root as plenty and the older Latin word plenus, which means 'full'. The ending -tude shows a state, so plentitude is the state of having a 'full supply' or a large amount of something.
