How Much Is 0.37 Pounds of Mashed Banana in Cups?
0.37 pounds of mashed banana equals 0.75 cups. Mashed banana has a density of 225g per cup. A lighter ingredient like flour (125g/cup) would fill more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.37 pounds of mashed banana
- Convert pounds to grams: 0.37 × 453.59 = 167.83g
- 1 cup of mashed banana = 225g
- 167.83g ÷ 225g/cup = 0.75 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Mashed and pureed ingredients vary in density depending on texture. A smoother puree packs more densely per cup than a chunky one.

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.
