Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 15.85 ounces of maple syrup
- Convert ounces to grams: 15.85 × 28.35 = 449.34g
- 1 cup of maple syrup = 312g
- 449.34g ÷ 312g/cup = 1.44 cups × 8 = 11.52 fluid ounces
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
