It's a staple of American school lunches: peanut butter sandwiches (usually with jelly, too). The average American child will eat 1500 peanut butter sandwiches by the time she graduates from high school! (On average, that's one sandwich every four days.) It takes 850 peanuts to make an 18-oz jar of peanut butter, and an average sandwich has two ounces of peanut butter on it. How many peanuts will be needed to make all of the sandwiches a child will eat by graduation?

The number of peanuts that will be needed to make all the sandwiches a child will eat by graduation  is approximately 141,667 peanuts

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of peanut butter sandwiches that an average American child will eat by the time she graduates from high school = 1500 peanut butter sandwiches

The number of sandwich taken every four days = 1 sandwich

The number of peanuts required to make 18-oz jar of peanut butter = 850 peanuts

The amount of peanut butter in an average sandwich = Two ounces

Therefore, we have by the time of graduation;

Each American child will have taken 1500 sandwiches

The 1500 sandwiches will have = 1500 × 2 ounce = 3,000 ounces of peanut butter

The number of 18-oz jars of peanut butter that will contain up to 3000-oz of peanut butter = 3000-oz/(18-oz) = 166.67 Jars

The number of peanuts required to make the 166.67 Jars of peanut butter = 850 peanuts/jar ×  166.67 Jars = 141666.67 ≈ 141,667 peanuts

The number of peanuts that will be needed to make all the sandwiches a child will eat by graduation  ≈ 141,667 peanuts.
