How many grams is 1 3/4 cups of sour cream?
Answer
One US cup (236.6 ml) of sour cream weighs 230 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 171257 “Cream, sour, cultured”, portion “1 cup” = 230 grams.
1 3/4 cups of sour cream equals 402.5 grams; the way back, from grams to cups, is the Grams to Cups converter.
This is the US customary cup of 236.6 ml. A recipe written for the metric cup of 250 ml (Australia, New Zealand, Canada) means 5.7 % more: 425.3 grams.
How 1 3/4 cups of sour cream was converted to grams
One US cup of sour cream weighs 230 grams (two hundred thirty), so multiply 1 3/4 by 230.
1 3/4 × 230 g
=402.5 grams
(four hundred two point five grams)
The weight of the cup comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 171257 “Cream, sour, cultured”, portion “1 cup” = 230 grams. Scooped ingredients vary with how they are filled — spooned in lightly, a cup weighs less; packed down, more — so for baking a kitchen scale is the exact tool and this figure the standard reference.

The other way round: how many cups a weight fills
This page starts from cups and answers in grams. The opposite question — how many cups a weight from a recipe fills — is what the grams to cups converter is for. Both read the same USDA weights, so their numbers agree: 100 grams of sour cream is 0.43 cups there.
