It depends on the line. Some seem to only have a few, some may have 2 or 4 of each different fabric, so you might have 40 squares but only 10 different prints. I've seen them with 52, 24, and 15.
Always best to check the details/ description to see exactly what you are getting. All of them I've seen in quilt shops tell you how many there are on the paper around them. Then I look to see if they are repeats.
If looking on line and you don't find the information in the description I would either call or email and ask.
one reason they are not consistent is because precuts are generally a ( sampling ) of a specific fabric line. There may be 15 different fabrics in the line, or 27; maybe only 7-10. Different lines have different varieties/ prints. Then when creating the precut collections the company decides what may sell best. If a collection only has a few fabrics they may decide to do 2,3,or 4 repeats to make a sellable collection. If it is a large line there may be only one or 2 of each fabric.
