Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 120g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 240 grams of whole wheat flour
  2. 1 cup of whole wheat flour = 120g
  3. 240g ÷ 120g/cup = 2 cups × 16 = 32.00 tablespoons

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

Measuring Tip

For the most consistent results, weigh whole wheat flour on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary by 20-30% depending on how the flour is scooped.

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 Tablespoon?

One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 32.00 tbsp, based on whole wheat flour having a density of 120g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 120 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 240 grams: 240 ÷ 120 = 2 cups × 16 = 32.00 tbsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh whole wheat flour on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, sift or whisk first to break up clumps, then spoon into the measuring spoon and level off. Do not scoop directly from the bag.
Yes, quite a bit. If you spoon the flour into your measuring spoon and level it off, you will get about 120 grams per cup. If you dip directly into the flour bag and sweep level, the flour packs tighter and you can end up with 132 to 150 grams per cup instead. This conversion uses the spoon-and-level method, which is the standard most baking references follow.
Reverse the conversion: 32.00 tbsp ÷ 16 = 2 cups, then 2 × 120g/cup = 240g. Or use the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
