Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 244g/cup × 236.588 = milliliters

Start with 6 ounces of milk
Convert ounces to grams: 6 × 28.35 = 170.10g
1 cup of milk = 244g
170.10g ÷ 244g/cup = 0.70 cups × 236.588 = 164.93 milliliters

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
