Formula and Step-by-Step

tablespoons × 13.63g/tbsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 33.29 tablespoons of vegetable oil
  2. 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil = 13.63g
  3. 33.29 × 13.63 = 453.58g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 453.58 ÷ 28.3495 = 16.00 oz

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

Measuring Tip

Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring spoon for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.

Understanding the Units

What is a Tablespoon?

A tablespoon (tbsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 14.787 milliliters, 3 teaspoons, or 1/16 of a cup. It is commonly used for measuring smaller amounts of ingredients.

What is an Ounce?

An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 16.00 oz, based on vegetable oil having a density of 218g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 13.63 (grams per tablespoon for vegetable oil), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 33.29 tablespoons: 33.29 × 13.63 = 453.58g, then 453.58 ÷ 28.3495 = 16.00 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh vegetable oil on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring spoon on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of vegetable oil changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 16.00 oz × 28.3495 = 453.58g, then 453.58g ÷ 13.63 = 33.29 tablespoons. Or use the Ounces to Tablespoons converter.
