On average, a baby will do it between 5 and 9 months old. See sources section below.

My son just started sitting up without support (when I place him upright) & he's four months. I think the average is around 5-7 months though. There's a great book called "What To Expect The First Year" it can be found at any Wal-Mart or book store & it's in a series (WTE During Pregnancy, WTE The Toddler Years). Anyway that book is great for explaing ALL infant milestones on a month by month basis. I'd look into getting it. (I'd say what it says but I don't have my book with me, sorry!)

My baby sat exactly when she completed 7 months :) Actually what i've observed is babies try sitting after they are very well-versed in crawling..or to be on fours. As sooner or later ur baby has mastered crawling she'll sit without support
Now my little girl 10 and she walks with support :))

Anywhere from 4 to 8 months. It takes some a little longer than others. My youngest has been sitting up since she was 5 months and started crawling at 7 months.

My baby started at around 5 months. I think it averages anywhere from about 4 - 7 months.

Placed to sit at about 6 months...getting to sitting on their own is a little later about 8-9 months....but all babies are different...sitting up and crawling are considered "parallel skills" they usually learn to sit up and then begin to crawl..

my first kid did at 6 months, second at 7.
we have this really cool seat called a bumbo seat:

It really helps when your child can not quite sit up on his own yet, but hold up his head. I think you can buy it at babies r us or target for about $30.
