Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 4.87 ounces of oat flour
- Convert ounces to grams: 4.87 × 28.35 = 138.06g
- 1 cup of oat flour = 92g
- 138.06g ÷ 92g/cup = 1.50 cups × 16 = 24.01 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
