First convert ounces to grams (1 ounce = 28.3495g), then divide by 113 (grams per cup). For 577.72 ounces: 577.72 × 28.3495 = 16,378.09g, then 16,378.09 ÷ 113 = 144.94 cups.
For the most accurate results, weigh cheddar cheese (shredded) on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 144.94 cups × 113g/cup = 16,378.09g, then 16,378.09g ÷ 28.3495 = 577.72 ounces. Or use the Cups to Ounces converter.
