Depends on the size of the yams. Ones I cooked today weighed about 1 pound each.
If you're truly talking about yams, the more accurate question would be:
How many pounds in a yam, since the real thing is truly enormous at up to 5ft long, 6 inches high, and 150lb.
Sweet potatos are not yams. They are actually of a totally different family of tubers, but on the average they run anywhere from 4oz to 18oz.
It depends on the size, but probably about two or three.
for making candied yams I use about 3 tablespoons per pound of yams (sweet potatoes).
Hamdani, invented yams. And it was for eating. :DD
There are about 114 calories in 1 cup of candied yams.
That depends on how big the Yams are. Work it out at about 6 ozs of Yam per person.

Okonkwo's number of Yams vary. In his first year, he has at least 1600 seed Yams, including 800 of them from Nwakibie and 400 from another friend. It is not specifically mentioned, but the number of Yams are thought to be in the thousands, perhaps tens of thousands later on.
Yams are not known in Romania.
One can make a wide variety of things with yams! In Vietnam, it is traditional to make a soup with yams. It is also common in other parts of the world to mash yams. In the Philippines, they use purple yams into desserts.
