Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 12.7 ounces of almonds (whole)
- Convert ounces to grams: 12.7 × 28.35 = 360.04g
- 1 cup of almonds (whole) = 143g
- 360.04g ÷ 143g/cup = 2.52 cups × 16 = 40.28 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
