Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 216g/cup ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 12.68 cups of olive oil
  2. 1 cup of olive oil = 216g
  3. 12.68 × 216 = 2,738.88g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 2,738.88 ÷ 28.3495 = 96.61 oz

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

For liquids, place your measuring cup on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 96.61 oz, based on olive oil having a density of 216g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 216 (grams per cup for olive oil), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 12.68 cups: 12.68 × 216 = 2,738.88g, then 2,738.88 ÷ 28.3495 = 96.61 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh olive oil on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring cup on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
