How Much Is 10 Tablespoons of Yogurt in Ounces?
10 tablespoons of yogurt weighs 5.40 oz. This is based on yogurt having a density of 245g 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 10 tablespoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 10 tablespoons of yogurt
- 1 tablespoon of yogurt = 15.31g
- 10 × 15.31 = 153.13g
- Convert grams to ounces: 153.13 ÷ 28.3495 = 5.40 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh yogurt on a kitchen scale rather than measuring by volume.

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?
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.
