Formula and Step-by-Step

pints × 504g/pt ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces

Start with 12 pints of evaporated milk
1 pint of evaporated milk = 504g
12 × 504 = 6,048g
Convert grams to ounces: 6,048 ÷ 28.3495 = 213.34 oz

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

Measuring Tip

For liquids, place your measuring cup on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.
