You should do it enough to see a clear pattern among the results. Or if you're doing it for like an elementary school science fair, just do it like 2 or 3 times, b/c they just want to know you thought of repeating the experiment. In middle school students are supposed to do it at least 10 times.

to get the best results repeat the experiment as many times as possible
which is 5 times or if it is typical experiment that 10 times like friend me at facebook
It depends on how fine the results of the experiment are-
0 decimal points- 15
1- 25
2- 35
3- 45
and so on (This is just my idea of what should be done)
Theories have to be proved A true scientist will repeat the same experiment several times to check the accuracy of his/her data. They will also use controls of the same type to make certain the experiment is stable. After they have concluded the experiment is true then they will publish it and allow other scientists to preform the same experiments to prove it correct. In every experiment there are many variables and different conditions that can be experienced. From this knowledge a true scientist will make sure that under all circumstances the experiment will hold true.
To answer this question we need to know what experiment you are doing. Some precautions to take in some experiments is to wear goggles, gloves, and not to stand over top of the experiment in case a gas is produced.
as much data as possible can be colleced in the time availble
