RE: Approximately how much more does a Pound of Feathers weigh than a Pound of Gold?

in #riddle8 years ago (edited)

It depends a bit on where you live; we use standardised pounds of 500 grams, but Your Weight May Vary in the colonies.

453.6 grams for 16 ounces of feathers, 373.2 grams for 12 troy ounces of gold, I think, but I was raised metrically 8-).

That would mean 80.4 grams between them.

I suppose you could mean a golden Pound called a Sovereign, which is 7.98 grams, or even a Pound's worth of gold, which is rather variable. The weight for the same mass would also vary depending on where you are on Earth.

Too many options, brain fried, core dumped.
