If mashed after cooking, approximately 8 cups.
The number of sweet potatoes needed to make 4 cups of cubed sweet potatoes can vary based on the size of the potatoes. On average, one medium sweet potato yields about 1 to 1.5 cups when cubed. Therefore, you would typically need about 3 to 4 medium sweet potatoes to get 4 cups of cubed sweet potatoes.
nothing of your concern and i am guessing about 2
if i knew i would not have to ask
2-3 potatoes.
That would be 2.5 pounds.
It depends it might be 4-6 sweet potato because it depends on size.

There are 2 cups in a pound, therefore 32 in a 16 pound can.
2 medium sweet potatoes = 3 to 4 canned = 1 1/4 cups Cooked and Mashed 3 medium sweet potatoes (16/17 ounces) = 1 lb. can = 2 cups Cooked and Mashed 4 medium sweet potatoes (23 ounces) = 3 qt. cans = 2 1/2 cups Cooked and Mashed See the Related Link for more information.
Since 6 cups of water weighs 3 pounds, and potatoes are close to the same specific gravity as water, if you totally stuffed potatoes into the cups, they'd be about 3 pounds also. However if you're cubing them or shredding them etc. there's going to be some air there as well, so depending on what you're doing and how tightly packed I'd guess 2.5-3 pounds... Vaguely scientific answer ;)
