How many cups is 30 grams of water?

Answer

30 grams of water is
0.13 US cups

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 over 1/8 cup.

30 grams of water equals 0.13 US cups; the way back, from cups to grams, is the Cups to Grams converter.

1 ml of water weighs about 1 g, so 30 grams of water takes the same room as 30 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 0.12 cups of that size.

How 30 grams of water was converted to cups

cups = grams ÷ grams in one US cup

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 30 by 236.5882365.

30 g ÷ 236.5882365 g

≈

0.13 cups

(zero point one three cups)

The weight of the cup comes from its volume: 1 ml of water weighs about 1 g.

The other way round: how many grams in a cup

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 water is 236.6 grams there and here.
