How Much Is 0.47 Cups of Egg Whites in Ounces?
0.47 cups of egg whites weighs 4.03 oz. This is based on egg whites having a density of 243g 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 0.47 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.47 cups of egg whites
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 0.47 × 243 = 114.21g
- Convert grams to ounces: 114.21 ÷ 28.3495 = 4.03 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
A whole large egg without shell weighs about 50g. When separating eggs for a recipe, weigh the whites and yolks individually for the most accurate results.

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?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
