Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 17.64 ounces of mayonnaise
- Convert ounces to grams: 17.64 × 28.35 = 500.09g
- 1 cup of mayonnaise = 220g
- 500.09g ÷ 220g/cup = 2.27 cups × 16 = 36.37 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most accurate results, weigh mayonnaise on a kitchen scale. Thick spreads can vary by 5-10% depending on how firmly they are packed.
