The average number varies with several factors - like if you are able to save all the babies from the time they are born. If you are just "letting nature take it's course" the survival rate will drop considerably. But I believe the first answer you got of 10-60 is pretty accurate. Also, you should know that a female guppy doesn't necessarily need a male with her all the time because she can "store" sperm in her body to continue getting pregnant even without re-introduction to a male.

A momma guppy will have between 10-60 fry per birth.
Survival rates also very widely depending on the conditions and mix of your tank.
Good luck.

10 - 30 is normal and it varies from one brood to the next. Some females have had broods much larger and 50-60 isn't totally uncommon. Broods of over 100 have been recorded, but that's extremely rare.
