How Much Is 7.31 Ounces of Tomato Sauce in Cups?
7.31 ounces of tomato sauce equals 0.85 cups. That's 207.24g, and Tomato sauce has a density of 245g 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 7.31 ounces of tomato sauce
- Convert ounces to grams: 7.31 × 28.35 = 207.24g
- 1 cup of tomato sauce = 245g
- 207.24g ÷ 245g/cup = 0.85 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For liquids, place your measuring cup on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.

Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.
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.
