Two, a positive and a negative.
1
All positive numbers have two. 0 has only one. Negative numbers have two imaginary roots but no real ones.
Negative numbers do not have "real number" square roots.However, they will have two roots (when using imaginary numbers) as do other numbers, where a root including i(square root of -1) is positive or negative.

Any real number - positive or negative - has exactly one real cube root. Any real number (except zero) has three cubic roots in the complex numbers; but only one of them is real.
There are 3 cube roots of 27. There are 2 square roots of 27 ( or any real number ). There are 4 fourth roots of 27 and so on:)
Many calculators will offer a way for you to do cube roots, or what number to the power of 3 will equal that number. There is no easy way to go about finding cube roots without a calculator, so I suggest not trying too hard.. but the cube root of 7 is 1.912931182772389 found from using a simple Cube Root calculator you can find on the internet.
Two, a positive and a negative.
Assuming that you mean the nth. root: two - a negative and a positive root.
Every number has two square roots. They're the same size, but one is positive and the other is negative.

Every positive number has TWO square roots. The principal square root is the positive number which, when multiplied by itself, gives the number in question. But its negative equivalent will also be a square root. For example, the number 4 has 2 as the principal sqrt but -2 is also a sqrt of 4
In general, the answer is 4, but only 2 of them are real. For example, the 4th roots of 16 are 2, -2, 2i, and -2i.
Every positive number has two square roots, though the roots are not always whole numbers (or even rational numbers). The more obvious of each numbers roots is the positive one.The positive square root of 4 is 2, because 2*2=4.The positive square root of 5 is roughly 2.236068.The other square root of a number is the negative inverse of their positive root. This is because when two negative numbers are multiplied together the negative signs "cancel out", leaving a positive number.The negative square root of 4 is -2, because -2*-2=4.The negative square root of 5 is roughly -2.236068.Zero has only one square root, itself, and no negative number has any (real number) square roots, since no number multiplied by itself will result in a negative.
All positive numbers have two. 0 has only one. Negative numbers have two imaginary roots but no real ones.
The square root of positive number can be ether a matched set of positive or negative numbers. As an example the square root of 4 can be either (-2 x -2) or (+2 x +2)
