How Much Is 24.49 Tablespoons of Granulated Sugar in Ounces?
24.49 tablespoons of granulated sugar weighs 10.80 oz. This is based on granulated sugar having a density of 200g 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 24.49 tablespoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 24.49 tablespoons of granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar = 12.5g
- 24.49 × 12.5 = 306.13g
- Convert grams to ounces: 306.13 ÷ 28.3495 = 10.80 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Granulated sugar should be spooned into the measuring spoon and leveled off. Do not pack it unless the recipe specifically says to (packing is only standard for brown sugar).

Understanding the Units
What is a Tablespoon?
One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.
What is an Ounce?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
