Answer 1

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

Mixed candy question... Skittles jar... to be filled with Jelly beans.

Let's first calculate the volume of the jar.  We'll assume it's a regular cylindrical prism jar, unlike the one on the photo which is narrower on top.

V = π * r² * h = π * (3.5)² * 11.5 = 140.875 π = 442.6 cubic cm

Now, we don't have the precise measurement of a jelly bean, but we know it's roughly 2-3 cubic cm.  The precision isn't needed to answer this question, just to have a rough idea... it's no 300 cu cm per jelly bean.

So, let's assume a 3 cu cm per jelly bean (2 cu cm wouldn't the final answer)....

442.6 / 3 = 147.5 jelly beans, approximately.

So, can they fit 100,000?  No

Can we fit 10,000 in there?  No

Can we fit 100?  Yes.

Can we fit 1?  Certainly

The most reasonable lower-limit would then be 100.
