How Much Is 0.31 Cups of Cashews in Ounces?
0.31 cups of cashews equals 1.50 oz. Cashews has a density of 137g per cup (137g per cup), which means it's moderate weight compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 0.31 cups of honey would be 3.72 oz.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.31 cups of cashews
- 1 cup of cashews = 137g
- 0.31 × 137 = 42.47g
- Convert grams to ounces: 42.47 ÷ 28.3495 = 1.50 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh cashews on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements of nuts vary depending on size, shape, and how tightly they pack.

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 an Ounce?
Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.
