Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.37 pounds of cottage cheese
- Convert pounds to grams: 0.37 × 453.59 = 167.83g
- 1 cup of cottage cheese = 226g
- 167.83g ÷ 226g/cup = 0.74 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Cottage cheese should be at room temperature for accurate volume measurement. Cold cottage cheese holds air pockets that change the weight.
