Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 243g/cup ÷ 453.592g/lb = pounds
  1. Start with 1.34 cups of egg whites
  2. 1 cup of egg whites = 243g
  3. 1.34 × 243 = 325.62g
  4. Convert grams to pounds: 325.62 ÷ 453.592 = 0.72 lb

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

A whole large egg without shell weighs about 50g. When separating eggs for a recipe, weigh the whites and yolks individually for the most accurate results.

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 0.72 lb, based on egg whites having a density of 243g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 243 (grams per cup for egg whites), then divide by 453.592 to convert grams to pounds. For 1.34 cups: 1.34 × 243 = 325.62g, then 325.62 ÷ 453.592 = 0.72 lb.
The most accurate way is to weigh egg whites on a kitchen scale, since individual eggs vary in size. If measuring by volume, pour into the measuring cup and read the level at eye height.
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: 0.72 lb × 453.592 = 325.62g, then 325.62g ÷ 243 = 1.34 cups. Or use the Pounds to Cups converter.
