Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 244g/cup ÷ 453.592g/lb = pounds
  1. Start with 0.43 cups of applesauce
  2. 1 cup of applesauce = 244g
  3. 0.43 × 244 = 104.92g
  4. Convert grams to pounds: 104.92 ÷ 453.592 = 0.23 lb

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.
