How Much Is 0.71 Cups of Granulated Sugar in Ounces?
0.71 cups of granulated sugar equals 5.01 oz. Granulated sugar has a density of 200g per cup (200g per cup), which means it's moderate weight compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 0.71 cups of all-purpose flour would be 3.13 oz.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.71 cups of granulated sugar
- 1 cup of granulated sugar = 200g
- 0.71 × 200 = 142g
- Convert grams to ounces: 142 ÷ 28.3495 = 5.01 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Sugar is one of the easier dry ingredients to measure by volume because the crystals pack relatively consistently compared to flour or cocoa powder.

Understanding the Units
What is a Cup?
The US cup (236.588 ml) is slightly smaller than the metric cup used in Australia and some other countries (250 ml). When following recipes from different countries, check which cup standard is being used.
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.
