How Much Is 113 Grams of Butter in Tablespoons?
113 grams of butter equals 7.96 tbsp. Butter has a density of 227g per cup. Because grams measure weight and tablespoons measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 113 grams of butter
- 1 cup of butter = 227g
- 113g ÷ 227g/cup = 0.50 cups × 16 = 7.96 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Softened butter and melted butter measure differently by volume. Melted butter settles with no air pockets, giving a slightly higher weight per cup.

Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
What is a Tablespoon?
A tablespoon is roughly the volume of a large soup spoon. In precise terms, 1 US tablespoon equals 14.787 ml, which is very close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most of the world. Three teaspoons make one tablespoon.
