5.29 ounces of vegetable oil equals 11.01 tbsp. That's 149.97g, and Vegetable oil has a density of 218g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and tablespoons measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 5.29 ounces of vegetable oil
- Convert ounces to grams: 5.29 × 28.35 = 149.97g
- 1 cup of vegetable oil = 218g
- 149.97g ÷ 218g/cup = 0.69 cups × 16 = 11.01 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.
