Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 19.93 ounces of butter
- Convert ounces to grams: 19.93 × 28.35 = 565.01g
- 1 cup of butter = 227g
- 565.01g ÷ 227g/cup = 2.49 cups × 16 = 39.82 tablespoons
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 Tablespoon?
Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.
