How Much Is 2.35 Cups of Raisins in Ounces?
2.35 cups of raisins weighs 12.02 oz. This is based on raisins having a density of 145g 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 2.35 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 2.35 cups of raisins
- 1 cup of raisins = 145g
- 2.35 × 145 = 340.75g
- Convert grams to ounces: 340.75 ÷ 28.3495 = 12.02 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Dried fruit weights vary with moisture content. Freshly opened packages weigh more than fruit that has been exposed to air and dried further.

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?
Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.
