How Much Is 0.24 Cups of Egg Whites in Pounds?
0.24 cups of egg whites equals 0.13 lb. Egg whites has a density of 243g per cup (243g per cup), which means it's relatively heavy compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 0.24 cups of all-purpose flour would be 0.07 lb.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.24 cups of egg whites
- 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
- 0.24 × 243 = 58.32g
- Convert grams to pounds: 58.32 ÷ 453.592 = 0.13 lb
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
One large egg white weighs approximately 30g and one large egg yolk weighs approximately 17g. Weighing separated eggs is more reliable than counting, since individual eggs vary in size.

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?
A pound (lb) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 453.592 grams or 16 ounces. It is used for larger quantities of ingredients like flour, sugar, and meat.
