Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 13.77 ounces of cocoa powder
- Convert ounces to grams: 13.77 × 28.35 = 390.37g
- 1 cup of cocoa powder = 86g
- 390.37g ÷ 86g/cup = 4.54 cups × 16 = 72.63 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
