Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 218g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 0.88 ounces of vegetable oil
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 0.88 × 28.35 = 24.95g
  3. 1 cup of vegetable oil = 218g
  4. 24.95g ÷ 218g/cup = 0.11 cups × 16 = 1.83 tablespoons

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring spoon for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.

Understanding the Units

What is an Ounce?

Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.

What is a Tablespoon?

A tablespoon is roughly the volume of a large soup spoon. In precise terms, 1 US tablespoon equals 14.787 ml, which is very close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most of the world. Three teaspoons make one tablespoon.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 1.83 tbsp, based on vegetable oil having a density of 218g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
First convert ounces to grams (1 ounce = 28.3495g), then divide by 218 (grams per cup), then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 0.88 ounces: 0.88 × 28.3495 = 24.95g, then 24.95 ÷ 218 = 0.11 cups × 16 = 1.83 tbsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh vegetable oil on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring spoon on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of vegetable oil changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 1.83 tbsp ÷ 16 = 0.114438 cups, then 0.114438 × 218g/cup = 24.95g, then 24.95g ÷ 28.3495 = 0.88 ounces. Or use the Tablespoons to Ounces converter.
