4 pints of fruit equals how many pounds?

Answer 1

A fruit volume is measured in bushels. 1 bushel(US) = 2150.42 cubic inches, or 64 pints. An imperial bushel is defined as 8 imperial gallons (liquid or dry measure), or 64 pints imperial. 1 pint imperial is the volume of 1.25 pounds of water, an imperial gallon being the volume of 10 pounds of water. (slightly more than a US bushel)

So by these figures you can guess that 1 pint of fruit, depending on the size of the fruit will be somewhat near 1 pound in weight, due to different density and different air spaces in the volume of the fruit. So 10 pints of peaches will be somewhere near 10 pounds weight but an exact number can't be given without weighing it.

Answer 2

It depends on the fruit. A fruit volume is measured in bushels. 1 bushel(US) = 2150.42 cubic inches, or 64 pints. An imperial bushel is defined as 8 imperial gallons (liquid or dry measure), or 64 pints imperial. 1 pint imperial is the volume of 1.25 pounds of water, an imperial gallon being the volume of 10 pounds of water.

So 4 pints of fruit will be somewhere near 4 pounds weight but an exact number can't be given without weighing it.
