It depends on the idividual. At a minimum, the average person's body burns about 1,000 calories a day just to survive. More activity (ranging from a desk job to active sports) then burns more calories accordingly.

It varies from person to person in accordance with such things as their weight, their health, their degree of fitness, and their activities. At a minimum, the average person's body burns about 1,200 calories a day just to survive. More activity (ranging from a desk job to active sports) then burns more calories accordingly.

For example, the average person burns 2000 calories on an average day. That's why nutrition labels are based on a 2000 calorie diet. That way, you don't gain or lose weight if you follow the recommendations. However, that is only an average.

That all depends on how many calories you are eating, and what your baseline need is.

Let's say your basic need is 2000 calories, and you eat 2500 cals. That means you need to burn at least 500 cals on exercise to start losing weight.

Rule of thumb says that when you're 3500 calories short, you've lost a pound of fat.

So in this example if you exercise for 600 cals every day it'll take you 35 days to lose one pound.

But maybe you're only eating 2000 cals/day, then you'd lose one pound every 6th day you keep it up - assuming that your numbers for your food and exercise are correct.
