Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 9.03 ounces of chocolate chips
- Convert ounces to grams: 9.03 × 28.35 = 256.00g
- 1 cup of chocolate chips = 168g
- 256.00g ÷ 168g/cup = 1.52 cups × 16 = 24.38 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
