Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 128g/cup ÷ 453.592g/lb = pounds
  1. Start with 182 cups of carrots (diced)
  2. 1 cup of carrots (diced) = 128g
  3. 182 × 128 = 23,296g
  4. Convert grams to pounds: 23,296 ÷ 453.592 = 51.36 lb

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 a Pound?

The abbreviation "lb" comes from the Latin word "libra." One pound equals exactly 453.59237 grams. For rough mental math, 1 pound is slightly less than half a kilogram.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 51.36 lb, based on carrots (diced) having a density of 128g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 128 (grams per cup for carrots (diced)), then divide by 453.592 to convert grams to pounds. For 182 cups: 182 × 128 = 23,296g, then 23,296 ÷ 453.592 = 51.36 lb.
For the most accurate results, weigh carrots (diced) on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 51.36 lb × 453.592 = 23,296g, then 23,296g ÷ 128 = 182 cups. Or use the Pounds to Cups converter.
