You would first need to determine how many calories you burn on average, then exceed that average by 3500 calories.
For example: if you naturally burn 11900 calories a week, (that's 1700 calories a day) you would need to eat approximately 15400 calories in one week to gain one pound.
For a great explanation on calories and how the body processes them (gaining and loosing weight) see the Hacker's Diet. The diet could easily be used to gain weight instead of lose it.

its supposed to be 3500 calories will make you gain a pound, and it would make you lose a pound if ate 3500 or burned 3500 less. Of course the less you excercise, and the more you eat, the faster you can gain the pound.

3500 calories equal one pound. The website I found that out is below.

I believe it is either 3200 or 3500 calories that equal one pound.

It doesn't matter how much you eat, it's how much extra calories, which is around 3500
