Formula and Step-by-Step

pints × 510g/pt ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 16 pints of soy sauce
  2. 1 pint of soy sauce = 510g
  3. 16 × 510 = 8,160g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 8,160 ÷ 28.3495 = 287.84 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.
