Female Guppies will get a little bigger than the males...I have 3 Females that are about 1 1/2 inch and my Male is about 1 inch...I also have Mollies..My Females are about 2- 2 1/2 inches, but I do have a Silver Female that is about 3 inches and my Male is about 2-2 1/2 iches...I think it all depends on the fish some are bigger and some are smaller
 
My adult male guppies are about 1.5 inches, but they vary according to breed (some breeders like to breed for size, apparently). With mollies I have a 1.5" baby, a 2" mature female, a 2.5" mature female sailfin and the whopper of the tank, a 3" mature male sailfin molly. So, depending on the breed, they can reach a fair size. Those are sizes excluding tails, of course, so his actual size is nearer 4 inches!

Apparently their previous owner got rid of them because they were too big and aggressive for her tank. I think they're fantastic but then I do have an almost 4 ft tank.
