28.35 tablespoons of cornmeal weighs 9.38 oz. This is based on cornmeal having a density of 150g per cup. Because tablespoons measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 28.35 tablespoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 28.35 tablespoons of cornmeal
