How much does a 5 gallon bucket of potatoes weight?

Answer 1

45lbs

Answer 2

Too many unknowns to answer accurately. But I'll estimate. Potatoes don't float in water, so they have a density greater that 1. First estimate: 1.2 for density.

Rhere will be spaces between the potatoes when in the bucket so the entire 5 gallons is not potatoes. Second estimate: 4.5 gallons are actually potatoes.

Now the math: (62.4 pounds/cubic foot) x (1 cubic foot / 7.5 gallons) x (4.5 gallons) x 1.2 = 44.928 pounds of potatoes

Last estimate to interpret the results: So probably somewhere between 40 and 50 pounds.

Answer 3

I just weighed 3-5 gallon buckets of potatoes each one weighed 24lbs roughly 11kg unless my scale is off
