Formula and Step-by-Step

pints × 490g/pt ÷ 453.592g/lb = pounds
  1. Start with 0.01 pints of tomato sauce
  2. 1 pint of tomato sauce = 490g
  3. 0.01 × 490 = 4.9g
  4. Convert grams to pounds: 4.9 ÷ 453.592 = 0.01 lb

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.
