One user said:While on the face of it a pound of feathers would seem to weigh the same as a pound of gold, this overlooks the fact that gold is universally weighed using a different definition of 'pound' than that used for most other materials.Precious metals such as gold are measured in troy weight. A troy pound is 12 troy ounces, and each troy ounce is 480 grains, making a total of 5760 grains to the pound of gold.Most materials use pounds and ounces from the avoirdupois system, and such a standard pound is made up of 16 ounces, where each ounce is 437.5 grains, making a total of 7000 grains to the pound of feathers.All this means that a "pound" of feathers (or bricks, or lead) is heavier than a "pound" of gold.

Let x be the pounds of 2.25 candy added. The total cost of the blend is the weighted average of the costs of the separate candies, so we have the equation (2.25x + 2(3.75))/(x + 2) = 2.85. Solving for x, we find that x = 1. This means 1 pound of candy selling for 2.25 should be added to 2 pounds of candy selling for 3.75 to create the desired blend.
