How Much Is 7.76 Ounces of Granulated Sugar in Cups?
Converting 7.76 ounces of granulated sugar to cups gives 1.10 cups. First convert to grams (7.76 oz = 219.99g), then divide by the density of granulated sugar (200g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 7.76 ounces of granulated sugar
- Convert ounces to grams: 7.76 × 28.35 = 219.99g
- 1 cup of granulated sugar = 200g
- 219.99g ÷ 200g/cup = 1.1 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Granulated sugar should be spooned into the measuring cup and leveled off. Do not pack it unless the recipe specifically says to (packing is only standard for brown sugar).
