How Much Is 2.98 Ounces of Carrots (Diced) in Cups?
2.98 ounces of carrots (diced) equals 0.66 cups. That's 84.48g, and Carrots (diced) has a density of 128g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 2.98 ounces of carrots (diced)
- Convert ounces to grams: 2.98 × 28.35 = 84.48g
- 1 cup of carrots (diced) = 128g
- 84.48g ÷ 128g/cup = 0.66 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
The weight of diced produce per cup depends on how finely it is cut. Smaller dice packs more tightly and weighs more per cup than large chunks.

Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
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.
