The number of petals depends on the flower species. You'd need to be more ... er ... specific about what kind of flower you meant for us to answer the question. If you're just looking for a rough answer, "between 3 and 6" is a fairly good guess. Eudicots (not a species, but a large group) generally have 4 or 5 petals and monocots (another lage group) tend to have either 3 or 6 petals. (There are many exceptions to this rule, though, so if you want a definitive answer you need to specify the kind of flower you mean. Also, be aware that a lot of things you think of as "petals" may not technically be petals; the bright red part of poinsettia plants, for example, is actually a kind of leaf called a "bract".)

To identify a 5 petal flower, look for a flower with five separate petals or sections that make up the bloom. Count the number of petals on the flower to determine if it has five petals.
There are indefinite number of petals in rose flower due to conversion of stamens in to petals

The number of petals and sepals in a flower are not always equal. If the sepals of a flower are joined together, the flowers are separate and not joined together, and the pistil is not necessarily joined to the petal.
Euphorbia flower does not have petals.
To identify a 6 petal flower, look for a flower with six separate petals or sections that make up the bloom. Count the number of petals to confirm it has six.
A carnation flower only has one pistil. The number of stamens that are on the flower is either the same, or sometimes it can be double the number of petals.
The wild rose have 5 petals and indefinite number of stamens but in cultivated roses there are indefinite number of petals and stamens due to modification of some stamens in to petals. The carpel is pear shaped.
Marigold belongs to the family Asteraceae (Compositae) where flowers are born on Head or Capetulum. In each flower there are five fused petals and the sepals are modified in to several haie like structures known as Pappus.
