Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 3.36 quarts of molasses
- 1 quart of molasses = 1,360g
- 3.36 × 1,360 = 4,569.6g
- Convert grams to pounds: 4,569.6 ÷ 453.592 = 10.07 lb
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.
