How much chocolates (aero, kitkate, skittles) would be inside a about 1600 ML jar and if I counted (predicted about) 14 or 15 chocolates per side (not counted the inside) How many(in boxes) (all combined with all the options)?

To estimate how many chocolates of Aero, KitKat, and Skittles could fit in a 1600 mL jar, you first need to consider the volume of each type of chocolate.

  1. Volume of Chocolates:

    • Aero Bar: A standard Aero bar weighs about 35g and has a volume of roughly 30 mL.
    • KitKat: A standard KitKat bar (4 fingers) weighs about 41g and has a volume of approximately 40 mL.
    • Skittles: A standard bag of Skittles (approximately 60g) has a volume of about 200 mL, which means each Skittle can be estimated at around 1.3 mL.
  2. Volume Available: Since you're counting about 14-15 chocolates per side, we can calculate the total number of chocolates that could fit in that volume. Assuming a jar has a cylindrical shape and taking an average packing efficiency into account, we can just use the volume for simplicity.

  3. Estimating Total:

    • Let's assume an average size (or volume) for each chocolate type:
      • Average Aero: ~30 mL
      • Average KitKat: ~40 mL
      • Average Skittle: ~1.3 mL

    Then calculate how many fit:

    • Assuming you are only filling with one type (for simplicity):
      • For Aero: \( \frac{1600 , \text{mL}}{30 , \text{mL}} \approx 53.33 \Rightarrow 53 , \text{bars} \)
      • For KitKat: \( \frac{1600 , \text{mL}}{40 , \text{mL}} \approx 40 \Rightarrow 40 , \text{bars} \)
      • For Skittles: \( \frac{1600 , \text{mL}}{1.3 , \text{mL}} \approx 1230.77 \Rightarrow 1230 , \text{Skittles} \)
  4. Combining All: A mix of these chocolates can be harder to predict without knowing the exact ratio, but for example you could split the jar among them.

    • Let's assume you divide the jar equally:
      • Each type would get about \( \frac{1600 \text{ mL}}{3} \approx 533.33 \text{ mL} \)
      • Aero: \( \frac{533.33 \text{ mL}}{30 \text{ mL}} \approx 17.78 \Rightarrow 17 , \text{bars} \)
      • KitKat: \( \frac{533.33 \text{ mL}}{40 \text{ mL}} \approx 13.33 \Rightarrow 13 , \text{bars} \)
      • Skittles: \( \frac{533.33 \text{ mL}}{1.3 \text{ mL}} \approx 410.26 \Rightarrow 410 , \text{Skittles} \)

This gives a total of approximately:

  • 17 Aero bars
  • 13 KitKat bars
  • 410 Skittles

In total: 17 + 13 + 410 = 440 individual pieces of chocolates (Aero, KitKat, Skittles combined).

If estimating by boxes:

  • Aero and KitKat usually come in packs of 3-5, while Skittles come in bags often containing about 50-60 skittles.

Depending on your local packaging information, you'll have to translate the numbers into boxes or packs. For instance:

  • 17 Aero bars might equal 4-5 boxes (assuming 3-5 bars per box).
  • 13 KitKats could be around 2-3 boxes.
  • 410 Skittles might mean around 7-8 bags (assuming about 50-60 per bag).

So, the exact number of boxes will depend on how they are packaged in your location, but you'll be looking at about 7-10 boxes/packs total for a mix.
