How Much Is 889 Ounces of Onions (Diced) in Cups?
889 ounces of onions (diced) equals 157.52 cups. Onions (diced) has a density of 160g per cup. A lighter ingredient like flour (125g/cup) would fill more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 889 ounces of onions (diced)
- Convert ounces to grams: 889 × 28.35 = 25,202.73g
- 1 cup of onions (diced) = 160g
- 25,202.73g ÷ 160g/cup = 157.52 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?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
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.
