02.04.2025 20:43 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Google AI overview to query "500g flour in cups" "500 grams of flour is approximately 2 1/2 cups. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Standard Conversion: 1 cup of all-purpose flour typically weighs around 120 grams. Calculation: To find the equivalent in cups, divide the total grams (500) by the grams per cup (120): 500g / 120g/cup = 4.17 cups. Rounding: Since we are using a standard conversion, we will round down to 4.17 cups to 4 cups. Therefore, 500g of flour is approximately 2 1/2 cups . "
Therefore.
