Question If a 5 pound bag of flour cost 3.99 how much would 4 cups of flour cost?
Not quite. While one pound of weight is sixteen ounces of weight, one cup of volume is eight fluid ounces. :shock:sgtpepper said:1 pound is 16 ounces
8 ounces is 1 cup
It depends on the flour. Even assuming we are speaking of modern bleached wheat general-purpose flour, one can find equivalences online ranging from 4.5 cups per pound all the way down to 2 [sup:15355ipj]2[/sup:15355ipj]/[sub:15355ipj]3[/sub:15355ipj] cups per pound. (A certain amount of this variation comes from whether or not the flour has been sifted.)sgtpepper said:1 pound of flour is equal to 4 cups of flour
