4.7 cups of chickpeas equals 33.16 oz. Chickpeas has a density of 200g per cup (200g per cup), which means it's moderate weight compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 4.7 cups of all-purpose flour would be 20.75 oz.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 4.7 cups of chickpeas
- 1 cup of chickpeas = 200g
- 4.7 × 200 = 940g
- Convert grams to ounces: 940 ÷ 28.3495 = 33.16 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

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?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
