Formula and Step-by-Step

(pounds × 453.59g/lb) ÷ 236.59g/cup × 0.5 = pints

Start with 0.54 pounds of water
Convert pounds to grams: 0.54 × 453.59 = 244.94g
1 cup of water = 236.59g
244.94g ÷ 236.59g/cup = 1.04 cups × 0.5 = 0.52 pints

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.
