Formula and Step-by-Step

tablespoons × 14.79g/tbsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 24 tablespoons of water
  2. 1 tablespoon of water = 14.79g
  3. 24 × 14.79 = 354.89g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 354.89 ÷ 28.3495 = 12.52 oz

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

Measuring Tip

Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.

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 an Ounce?

Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 12.52 oz, based on water having a density of 236.59g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 14.79 (grams per tablespoon for water), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 24 tablespoons: 24 × 14.79 = 354.89g, then 354.89 ÷ 28.3495 = 12.52 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh water 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 water 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: 12.52 oz × 28.3495 = 354.89g, then 354.89g ÷ 14.79 = 24 tablespoons. Or use the Ounces to Tablespoons converter.
