Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 8.87 ounces of heavy cream
- Convert ounces to grams: 8.87 × 28.35 = 251.46g
- 1 cup of heavy cream = 238g
- 251.46g ÷ 238g/cup = 1.06 cups × 236.588 = 249.97 milliliters
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
