Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 21.46 ounces of maple syrup
- Convert ounces to grams: 21.46 × 28.35 = 608.38g
- 1 cup of maple syrup = 312g
- 608.38g ÷ 312g/cup = 1.95 cups × 8 = 15.60 fluid ounces
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

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 Fluid Ounce?
A US fluid ounce (fl oz) is a unit of volume equal to 29.574 milliliters or 1/8 of a cup. It measures liquid volume and should not be confused with the ounce (oz), which measures weight.
