How Much Is 120 Grams of Self-Rising Flour in Teaspoons?
Converting 120 grams of self-rising flour to teaspoons gives 48.00 tsp. Divide by the density of self-rising flour (120g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 120 grams of self-rising flour
- 1 cup of self-rising flour = 120g
- 120g ÷ 120g/cup = 1 cup × 48 = 48.00 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Different flour types have very different weights per cup. Always check the specific flour your recipe calls for rather than using a generic "flour" conversion.
