This takes me back a few years. My grandad use to ask a similar question which was 'If it takes a man a week to walk a fortnight, how many apples in a pound of plums?', to which the answer was always 'A lemon!'.
I'm sure you have to be of a certain generation to appreciate the humour of this....
My Grandad's version was: 'If it takes a man a week to walk a fortnight, how many apples are there in a barrel of grapes? The answer is 'A railway train'. 'And where does that come in?' answer: 'The station'. Every generation of the family was subjected to this nonsense on any family occasion. We trotted it out after his funeral, with children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren all chorusing the answers.
It takes a lot more energy, water, labour to produce a pound of meat than a pound of corn. It takes pounds of corn and water to feed just one pig.
It takes .4 gallons of oil to produce 1 pound of plastic.
it takes about 1 gallon of water to process a quarter pound of hamburger.
None. It takes 32 of those to make 1#.
No. Pound is the larger unit. The pound is bigger in a total.
This is a very silly question but their are not apples in a grape
1, unless somebody else takes that one away. Hold on to your apples.
A fortnight is an arcaic unit of time that is equivalent to 2 weeks, or 14 days It is also the amount of time that it takes for light to travel 362,628,957,196,800 meters.
I like apples I do, I also like grapes, but my mum wont let me eat them after 7pm as I tend to get a little excited then I wont sleep.It takes about 10 lbs of apples to make 1 gallon of apple cider. The number of apples per pound depends on the size of the apple.
it takes 100,000,000 apples to fill a car
the water would be clear, genius

It depends on the weight of each apple. Since apples aren't all a consistent weight, it is impossible to say for sure. What you should do is take 1000 divided by the weight of the apples in your problem, and then you'll know the total number of those particular apples it takes to weigh a thousand pounds. Without knowing the weight, its impossible to know the number. It could be one, giant, 1000lb apple.
A pound is more. It takes twenty shillings to make a pound

There are not any apples in the barrel of grapes! It's a barrel of grapes! How could there be apples in there?!!
If it takes a fortnight to walk a week you are taking two steps forward and one step backward. which is like 6 0f one and half dozen of the other. Therefore you should not count your chickens before they hatch and quit shouting "sour grapes!"
