The amount of ashes to scatter depends on the age and size of the deceased before cremation, as well as whether you've decided to divide the ashes for multiple resting places. A standard adult's ashes can range between 150-250 cubic inches of volume, with one cubic inch corresponding to one pound of the person's weight when alive. This volume of ashes may look like 8-12 cups and weigh 4-6 pounds. In comparison, a teenager, child, or infant that has passed away will have a smaller volume of ashes available for scattering. If you are dividing ashes among multiple people or placing them in different locations, the amount of ashes you have to scatter will vary depending on your choices.
