Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.17 ounces of walnuts
- Convert ounces to grams: 0.17 × 28.35 = 4.82g
- 1 cup of walnuts = 120g
- 4.82g ÷ 120g/cup = 0.04 cups × 16 = 0.64 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
