1. Find the number of peanuts in a 20-ounce jar:

20 \text{ ounces} \times 45 \text{ peanuts/ounce} = 900 \text{ peanuts}

2. Find the number of peanuts in a 12-ounce jar:

12 \text{ ounces} \times 45 \text{ peanuts/ounce} = 540 \text{ peanuts}

3. Subtract the number of peanuts in the 12-ounce jar from the 20-ounce jar to find out how many more peanuts are in the 20-ounce jar:

900 - 540 = 360

Therefore, there are

360

more peanuts in the 20-ounce jar than in the 12-ounce jar.
