Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 117 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour = 7.82g
- 117 × 7.82 = 915.23g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Humidity affects all-purpose flour weight. In humid conditions, flour absorbs moisture and weighs more per cup. Store it in an airtight container for consistent results.

Understanding the Units
What is a Tablespoon?
Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
