How Much Is 114 Grams of Cornmeal in Cups?
114 grams of cornmeal equals 0.76 cups. Cornmeal has a density of 150g per cup. Because grams measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 114 grams of cornmeal
- 1 cup of cornmeal = 150g
- 114g ÷ 150g/cup = 0.76 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Uncooked and cooked grains have completely different weights per cup. These conversions are for uncooked/dry grains unless specified otherwise.

Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.
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.
