I actually needed to know this answer, too! I bought a 5lb bag and weighed out 1lb of Jolly Ranchers in a food scale. This was 70 pieces of candy, so 350 pieces in the whole bag (5lb x 70 pcs = 350). But I don't think my food scale is super accurate.

On the Nutrition Facts listed on the bag, it says a serving size is 3 pieces of candy and that there are about 126 servings in a 5lb bag so that makes 378 (3pcs candy x 126 servings = 378). Also, it says that a serving is 18 grams, so (18g/3 = 6) each candy is 6 grams. There are about 450 g in a lb. That makes 75 candies per 450 g or 1 lb = 375 pieces of candy.

I would go with the 375 - 378 because those numbers rely on the manufacturer's stated weights.
