How Much Is 3.75 Grams of Granulated Sugar in Cups?
Converting 3.75 grams of granulated sugar to cups gives 0.02 cups. Divide by the density of granulated sugar (200g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 3.75 grams of granulated sugar
- 1 cup of granulated sugar = 200g
- 3.75g ÷ 200g/cup = 0.02 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Granulated sugar weighs 200g per cup. Different sugar types have different densities, so always use the specific type your recipe calls for.

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.
