If the plastic bottle weighed a heavier 40 grams, there would be roughly 11 bottles per pound. Thus, respectively, it would take 699,000 or 454,000 of these sample weights of bottles to equal 40,000 pounds.
It typically takes around 20,000 glass bottles to make a ton. However, the exact number can vary depending on the size and weight of the bottles.
