The ten best known avatars of Vishnu are collectively known as the Dasavatara
1 Matsya, the fish-avatar who saved Manu – the progeniter of mankind from the great deluge and rescued the Vedic scriptures by killing a demon. Story can be found in the Matsya Purana.
2 Kurma, the tortoise-avatar, who helped in the Samudra manthan – the churning of the ocean. Story can be found in the Kurma Purana.
3 Varaha, the boar-avatar, who rescued the earth from the ocean, by killing her kidnapper-demon Hiranyaksha. Story can be found in the Varaha Purana.

8 Krishna, the king of Dwarka, a central character in the Bhagavata Purana and the Mahabharata and reciter of Bhagavad Gita.

Total were 24 incarnations.
As per the Bhagwat and other purans there were total 24 incarnations of Lord Vishnu but among them 10 incarnations were most needed, most important and main incarnations, these 10 incarnations were needed to save this earth and the peoples therefore it considered as main incarnations, these 10 incarnations are most popular in HIndu religion too as you described above.
Our ginans also mentioning only these 10 main incarnations because of its importance, but if we count all incarnations then there were total 24 incarnations.
