Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 312g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 6.88 ounces of maple syrup
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 6.88 × 28.35 = 195.04g
  3. 1 cup of maple syrup = 312g
  4. 195.04g ÷ 312g/cup = 0.63 cups × 16 = 10.00 tablespoons

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Sticky liquids like maple syrup are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring spoon first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

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 is roughly the volume of a large soup spoon. In precise terms, 1 US tablespoon equals 14.787 ml, which is very close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most of the world. Three teaspoons make one tablespoon.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 10.00 tbsp, based on maple syrup having a density of 312g 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 312 (grams per cup), then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 6.88 ounces: 6.88 × 28.3495 = 195.04g, then 195.04 ÷ 312 = 0.63 cups × 16 = 10.00 tbsp.
Weighing maple syrup on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. It is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring vessels. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the measuring spoon first so it slides out cleanly.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of maple syrup changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 10.00 tbsp ÷ 16 = 0.625143 cups, then 0.625143 × 312g/cup = 195.04g, then 195.04g ÷ 28.3495 = 6.88 ounces. Or use the Tablespoons to Ounces converter.
