How Much Is 2.66 Cups of Mashed Banana in Ounces?
2.66 cups of mashed banana weighs 21.11 oz. This is based on mashed banana having a density of 225g 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 2.66 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 2.66 cups of mashed banana
- 1 cup of mashed banana = 225g
- 2.66 × 225 = 598.5g
- Convert grams to ounces: 598.5 ÷ 28.3495 = 21.11 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Mashed and pureed ingredients vary in density depending on texture. A smoother puree packs more densely per cup than a chunky one.

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.
