Formula and Step-by-Step

(pounds × 453.59g/lb) ÷ 245g/cup ÷ 16 = gallons

Start with 1.1 pounds of tomato sauce
Convert pounds to grams: 1.1 × 453.59 = 498.95g
1 cup of tomato sauce = 245g
498.95g ÷ 245g/cup = 2.04 cups ÷ 16 = 0.13 gallons

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.
