0.36 pounds of dried cranberries equals 1.36 cups. That's 163.29g, and Dried cranberries has a density of 120g per cup. Because pounds measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.36 pounds of dried cranberries
- Convert pounds to grams: 0.36 × 453.59 = 163.29g
- 1 cup of dried cranberries = 120g
- 163.29g ÷ 120g/cup = 1.36 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Understanding the Units
What is a Pound?
A pound (lb) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 453.592 grams or 16 ounces. It is used for larger quantities of ingredients like flour, sugar, and meat.
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
