How many cups is 10 grams of granulated sugar?
Answer
One US cup (236.6 ml) of granulated sugar weighs 200 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169655 “Sugars, granulated”, portion “1 cup” = 200 grams.
10 grams of granulated sugar equals 0.05 US cups; the way back, from cups to grams, is the Cups to Grams converter.
This is the US customary cup of 236.6 ml. A metric cup of 250 ml, used in Australia, New Zealand and Canada, is 5.7 % larger, so the same weight fills 0.0473 cups of that size.
How 10 grams of granulated sugar was converted to cups
A cup is a volume, so its weight depends on the ingredient. One US cup of granulated sugar weighs 200 grams (two hundred), so divide 10 by 200.
10 g ÷ 200 g
=0.05 cups
(zero point zero five cups)
The weight of the cup comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169655 “Sugars, granulated”, portion “1 cup” = 200 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.

This page starts from grams and answers in cups. The opposite question — how many grams a recipe’s cups weigh, fractions like 1/2 and 2 1/2 included — is what the cups to grams converter is for. Both read the same USDA weights, so their numbers agree: one US cup of granulated sugar is 200 grams there and here.
