Converting 0.47 cups of egg whites to grams gives 114.21 g. One cup of egg whites weighs 243g, so 0.47 cups is 0.47 × 243 = 114.21g. This conversion is specific to egg whites because each ingredient has a different density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.47 cups of egg whites
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 0.47 × 243 = 114.21g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Carton egg whites and yolks have very consistent density, making them easier to measure by volume than freshly separated eggs. If your recipe calls for a specific gram amount, carton products are the most predictable.

Understanding the Units
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
What is a Gram?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
