Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.23 ounces of sunflower seeds
- Convert ounces to grams: 1.23 × 28.35 = 34.87g
- 1 cup of sunflower seeds = 140g
- 34.87g ÷ 140g/cup = 0.25 cups × 16 = 3.99 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
