How Much Is 1.35 Cups of Flaxseed in Ounces?
1.35 cups of flaxseed weighs 7.05 oz. This is based on flaxseed having a density of 148g 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 1.35 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.35 cups of flaxseed
- 1 cup of flaxseed = 148g
- 1.35 × 148 = 199.8g
- Convert grams to ounces: 199.8 ÷ 28.3495 = 7.05 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Ground and whole flaxseed have different densities. Make sure you are using the form your recipe specifies.
