To convert ounces (oz) to cups, it’s important to know the standard conversion for fluid ounces to cups in the U.S. measurement system:
- 1 cup = 8 fluid ounces.
This means that 1 ounce is equal to 1/8 cup or 0.125 cups.
Converting Two Ounces to Cups
To convert 2 ounces to cups, you can use the following calculation:
2 oz × 1 cup/8 oz ​= 2/8 ​cups = 0.25 cups
Conclusion
Two ounces is equal to 0.25 cups, or 1/4 cup.
This conversion is useful in cooking and baking when recipes are written with measurements in ounces but you want to use cups instead. Keep in mind that this conversion applies to fluid ounces, which measure volume, not weight. If you’re dealing with ounces as a weight measurement (like ounces of flour), the conversion would be different and depend on the density of the ingredient.
