This would depend on several factors to include:

  • the age of the cell
  • availability of resources (i.e. food, water, light)
  • the type of organism in question

Unfortunately there is no definitive answer to your question. The best answer may be "As many times as it can."

Most human cells can divide between 40 and 60 times before reaching a stage called cellular senescence, where they can no longer divide. This limit is known as the Hayflick Limit.

A new edit:

Actually, most cells divide everyday but there are some that take days, months, even years! To divide.

Quite a few times I believe. But if they are duplicated too much it can cause cancer.
