How Much Is 17.28 Ounces of Yogurt in Cups?
Converting 17.28 ounces of yogurt to cups gives 2.00 cups. First convert to grams (17.28 oz = 489.88g), then divide by the density of yogurt (245g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 17.28 ounces of yogurt
- Convert ounces to grams: 17.28 × 28.35 = 489.88g
- 1 cup of yogurt = 245g
- 489.88g ÷ 245g/cup = 2.00 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh yogurt on a kitchen scale rather than measuring by volume.

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.
