How 20 grams of whole milk was converted to cups
A cup is a volume, so its weight depends on the ingredient. One US cup of whole milk weighs 244 grams (two hundred forty-four), so divide 20 by 244.
20 g ÷ 244 g
≈0.082 cups
(zero point zero eight two cups)
The weight of the cup comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 171265 “Milk, whole, 3.25% milkfat, with added vitamin D”, portion “1 cup” = 244 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.
