Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 245g/cup ÷ 453.592g/lb = pounds
  1. Start with 0.93 cups of tomato sauce
  2. 1 cup of tomato sauce = 245g
  3. 0.93 × 245 = 227.85g
  4. Convert grams to pounds: 227.85 ÷ 453.592 = 0.50 lb

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

Measuring Tip

Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.
