How to convert grams to ounces

ounces = grams ÷ 28.3495

Example: 250 g ÷ 28.3495 = 8.818 oz.

Convert grams to ounces (g to oz) instantly. See a chart from 1 to 1,000 grams, get the exact formula, check a worked example and copy the result.
On the scale, 1 gram lines up with 0.03527 ounce; read any other amount straight across.

Divide the grams by 28.3495. If multiplying is easier on your calculator, use 0.035274 instead; both give the same answer. A 180 g fish fillet works out to 6.349 oz, and a 40 g serving of oats to 1.411 oz.

These are ounces of weight, the kind a kitchen scale shows. The fluid ounces printed on a measuring jug measure volume, so a gram amount cannot be read off those lines. For cup measures, use the grams to cups converter, which accounts for the ingredient.

Converting a metric recipe for an ounce scale

Work down the ingredient list one line at a time and round each result to a tenth of an ounce. 225 g of sugar becomes 7.9 oz, 150 g of dark chocolate becomes 5.3 oz, and 60 g of cocoa becomes 2.1 oz.

Small amounts are the weak spot. A tenth of an ounce is already 2.8 g, so a scale that reads in tenths cannot show 4 g of salt or 7 g of yeast with any precision. For those, switch the scale to grams or measure with spoons using grams to teaspoons.

Grams and ounces: questions

How many grams make 1 oz?

Exactly 28.349523125 grams, because the ounce is defined as one sixteenth of the avoirdupois pound. For cooking, 28.3 g is precise enough, and 28 g works for a rough estimate.

Is 30 g equal to 1 oz?

Close, but no. 30 g is 1.058 oz, about 6% more than an ounce.

Dividing by 30 is fine for a quick guess, but every converted amount comes out about 5% too light. For 900 g of flour, the shortcut gives 30 oz, while the true weight is 31.75 oz.

Is 8 grams 1/4 oz?

Not exactly. A quarter ounce is 7.09 g, and 8 g is 0.2822 oz, a little over a quarter. The gap is almost one gram, which matters for small amounts such as spices, baking soda or yeast.

Is 100 g the same as 4 oz?

No. 100 g is 3.527 oz, roughly three and a half ounces. Four ounces would be 113.4 g, so a 100 g bar or bag is about 13 g lighter than a 4 oz one.

How do I convert g to oz in my head?

Divide by 30, then add 6% of the result. For 400 g, that gives 13.3 plus 0.8, or about 14.1 oz. The exact answer is 14.11 oz, so the shortcut is close enough for shopping or a quick check of a recipe.
