How many grams is 3 1/4 cups of plain yogurt?
Answer
One US cup (236.6 ml) of plain yogurt weighs 245 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 171284 “Yogurt, plain, whole milk”, portion “1 cup (8 fl oz)” = 245 grams.
3 1/4 cups of plain yogurt equals 796.3 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: 841.4 grams.
How 3 1/4 cups of plain yogurt was converted to grams
One US cup of plain yogurt weighs 245 grams (two hundred forty-five), so multiply 3 1/4 by 245.
3 1/4 × 245 g
≈796.3 grams
(seven hundred ninety-six point three grams)
The weight of the cup comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 171284 “Yogurt, plain, whole milk”, portion “1 cup (8 fl oz)” = 245 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 plain yogurt is 0.41 cups there.
