How many cups is 1,200 grams of water?
Answer
One US cup (236.6 ml) of water weighs 236.6 grams, from its volume: 1 ml of water weighs about 1 g. In kitchen measures that is just under 5 1/8 cups.
1,200 grams of water equals 5.07 US cups; the way back, from cups to grams, is the Cups to Grams converter.
1 ml of water weighs about 1 g, so 1,200 grams of water takes the same room as 1,200 ml, which is the question the milliliters to cups converter answers by volume.
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 4.8 cups of that size.
How 1,200 grams of water was converted to cups
A cup is a volume, so its weight depends on the ingredient. One US cup of water weighs 236.6 grams (two hundred thirty-six point six), so divide 1,200 by 236.5882365.
1,200 g ÷ 236.5882365 g
≈5.07 cups
(five point zero seven cups)
The weight of the cup comes from its volume: 1 ml of water weighs about 1 g.

Both read the same USDA weights, so their numbers agree: one US cup of water is 236.6 grams there and here.
