Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 19.05 ounces of pearl barley
- Convert ounces to grams: 19.05 × 28.35 = 540.06g
- 1 cup of pearl barley = 200g
- 540.06g ÷ 200g/cup = 2.70 cups × 16 = 43.20 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
