How Much Is 29.5 Milliliters of Olive Oil in Ounces?
29.5 milliliters of olive oil weighs 0.95 oz. This is based on olive oil having a density of 216g per cup. Because milliliters measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 29.5 milliliters.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 29.5 milliliters of olive oil
- 1 milliliter of olive oil = 0.91g
- 29.5 × 0.91 = 26.93g
- Convert grams to ounces: 26.93 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.95 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring cup for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.

Understanding the Units
What is a Milliliter?
A milliliter (ml) is a metric unit of volume equal to 1/1000 of a liter. It is the standard volume measurement for cooking in most countries outside the US. One cup equals approximately 236.588 milliliters.
