How Much Is 13.55 Ounces of Cornstarch in Cups?
13.55 ounces of cornstarch equals 3.00 cups. That's 384.14g, and Cornstarch 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 13.55 ounces of cornstarch
- Convert ounces to grams: 13.55 × 28.35 = 384.14g
- 1 cup of cornstarch = 128g
- 384.14g ÷ 128g/cup = 3.00 cups
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.
