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?

A tablespoon (tbsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 14.787 milliliters, 3 teaspoons, or 1/16 of a cup. It is commonly used for measuring smaller amounts of ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 0.72 tbsp, based on cheddar cheese (shredded) having a density of 113g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
First convert ounces to grams (1 ounce = 28.3495g), then divide by 113 (grams per cup), then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 0.18 ounces: 0.18 × 28.3495 = 5.10g, then 5.10 ÷ 113 = 0.05 cups × 16 = 0.72 tbsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh cheddar cheese (shredded) on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 0.72 tbsp ÷ 16 = 0.0451585 cups, then 0.0451585 × 113g/cup = 5.10g, then 5.10g ÷ 28.3495 = 0.18 ounces. Or use the Tablespoons to Ounces converter.
