Formula and Step-by-Step

pints × 452g/pt ÷ 453.592g/lb = pounds
  1. Start with 0.8 pints of coconut milk
  2. 1 pint of coconut milk = 452g
  3. 0.8 × 452 = 361.6g
  4. Convert grams to pounds: 361.6 ÷ 453.592 = 0.80 lb

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

Measuring Tip
