Exact Formula

Calculation & Mathematical Derivation

To convert 130 grams of Rolled Oats (Old Fashioned) into US Customary measuring cups (236.6 mL):

Cups = Weight in Grams ÷ Grams per Cup (Bulk Density)
Cups = 130g ÷ 80g/cup = 1.63 cups (kitchen fraction: 1 5/8 cups)
Tablespoons = 130g ÷ 5.00g/tbsp = 26.0 tablespoons

This calculation is calibrated specifically for Gently scooped and leveled (not packed) under standard kitchen conditions (sourced from USDA FoodData Central (FDC ID 169705)).

Technique Note: Loose flakes leave significant air voids; 1 cup weighs exactly 80g.
