How Much Is 17.31 Cups of Onions (Diced) in Ounces?
17.31 cups of onions (diced) weighs 97.69 oz. This is based on onions (diced) having a density of 160g 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 17.31 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 17.31 cups of onions (diced)
- 1 cup of onions (diced) = 160g
- 17.31 × 160 = 2,769.6g
- Convert grams to ounces: 2,769.6 ÷ 28.3495 = 97.69 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Raw and cooked produce have very different weights per cup. Cooked vegetables shrink and become denser. These conversions are for raw produce.

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.
