How Much Is 0.13 Cups of Butter in Ounces?
0.13 cups of butter weighs 1.04 oz. This is based on butter having a density of 227g per cup. Because cups measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 0.13 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.13 cups of butter
- 1 cup of butter = 227g
- 0.13 × 227 = 29.51g
- Convert grams to ounces: 29.51 ÷ 28.3495 = 1.04 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Butter is easiest to measure using the markings on the wrapper. One US stick = 113g = 1/2 cup = 8 tablespoons.
