    Average mass of a kernel of popcorn = 0.125 g

    1 pound = 16 ounces, and 1 ounce = 28.3 g

    how many kernels of popcorn are there in 0.500 pounds of popcorn = ?

    0.500 pound = 16 x 0.500 ounces = 8 ounces

    8 ounces = 8 x 28.3g = 226.4 g

    Now divide this quantity by average mass;

    226.4 / 0.125

    = 811.2 kernels of popcorn
