364 cups of cornmeal weighs 120.37 lb. This is based on cornmeal having a density of 150g per cup. Because cups measure volume and pounds measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 364 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 364 cups of cornmeal
- 1 cup of cornmeal = 150g
- 364 × 150 = 54,600g
- Convert grams to pounds: 54,600 ÷ 453.592 = 120.37 lb
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Pour grains into the measuring cup and level off. Do not shake or tap, as this settles the grains and increases the weight.
