Do we know the approximate weight of a single almond?
Googling I find that 1 ounce is generally about 23 almonds.
Also, 1 ounce = 28.3495 grams
Working the units we have:
(almonds/ounce)(ounces/gram)(grams) = almonds
Plug in the numbers:
23(1/28.3495)(500) = 405.65 almonds
I would expect approximately 406 almonds in a bag weighing 500 grams
