Formula and Step-by-Step

tablespoons × 9.25g/tbsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces

Start with 3.06 tablespoons of flaxseed
1 tablespoon of flaxseed = 9.25g
3.06 × 9.25 = 28.31g
Convert grams to ounces: 28.31 ÷ 28.3495 = 1.00 oz

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