"Ce n'est pas un problème" ?

In one of the test the question is:

"Désolé, j'ai oublié mon argent. - Oh, ________." Sorry, I forgot my money. -Oh, it's not a problem.

The correct answer given was «Ça ne fait rien.»

Why couldn't i say "Ce n'est pas un problème" ?

Why peut-etre que?I am doing an exercise called "My post-university plans." I am asked to translate from English to French "Maybe I'll be able to spend some time ...." I wrote "Peut-etre je pourrai passer les temps..." The answer was "Peut-etre que je pourrai..." My question is why the "que" after peut-etre? Thank you.

What is the difference between using "faillir" and "il s'en est fallu de peu que"?

For example, "J'ai failli le faire" vs "Il s'en est fallu de peu que je le fasse."

2 Subjects -Subjonctif

Il a attendu jusqu’à ce qu’il doive partir.

If subjonctif requires 2 subjects- I assume that “he” waited until another “he” had to go?

Je suis - when is the final 's' silent?

With the above examples the final 's' in 'je suis a' is silent. But when saying 'Je suis aller..' I have heard the s pronounced? Is there a rule for when the final 's' is silent or not?
