0.24 pounds of flaxseed equals 0.74 cups. That's 108.86g, and Flaxseed has a density of 148g 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 0.24 pounds of flaxseed
- Convert pounds to grams: 0.24 × 453.59 = 108.86g
- 1 cup of flaxseed = 148g
- 108.86g ÷ 148g/cup = 0.74 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh flaxseed on a kitchen scale. Small seeds are easy to over-measure by volume.
