It depends on how long the polyp lives, because the polyp creates the baby jellyfish. If it gets killed after letting off one batch of jellies, you can expect somewhere in between 8-16 new jellies. but usually, polyps live long enough to make several new batches of jellies. Also, a polyp may bud off another polyp, which will also begin making new jellies. So one jellyfish may make hundreds or thousands of new jellies. Of course, not all of them survive.(Just to let you know, polyps finish growing baby jellies roughly yearly)
