Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 4 ounces of self-rising flour
- Convert ounces to grams: 4 × 28.35 = 113.40g
- 1 cup of self-rising flour = 120g
- 113.40g ÷ 120g/cup = 0.94 cups × 16 = 15.12 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
