Hope,

You need to make sure Google Instant is turned off. You can do this from Advance Search by clicking on the gear in the upper right hand corner and then Choosing Search settings.

Turn Instant off and then you can adjust the number of results setting which is just below the Instant feature.

I hope that helps,

~Zachary
