Anyone Good With Numbers?

**CosmicPal** · 09-06-2005, 10:00 AM

I need to do a cost analysis/benefit breakdown of every item I purchase for the company.

For instance, how many tablespoons can you get out of 54 grams (1.92 ounces)???

If you can figure this out, and give me the answer- I'd appreciate it.

(I will consider paying someone on the Planet to do a bunch of items for me, should someone be interested. Answer the above correctly and you could be in for a little extra money).

I thought the Chiefs were big in Japan during the 90's? Particularly when we had Montana at the helm.

Dry measure equivalent is

2T = 1/8C = 1oz = 28.3 grams

Grams of what? That's kinda important.

Surely there are calculators that can do this type of thing.

By the way, I find it a bit pathetic that you're asking BB members to do your job for you.

Well a table spoon is a measurement of volume while grams are a measurement of mass. What that means is your answer depends on the density of the material.

In other words, "how many grams fit in 1 tablespoon?"

Doesn't seem like much. How'd you come up with that number?

It depends on what you're measuring. Generally in cooking, 1 TBS = 15 grams, but if you're measuring lead, it would be more grams.

Precisely, in this case- I'm looking for the amount of tablespoons in a 1.92 ounce bottle of ground spice/seasoning.

Obviously there is something going on here that I do not understand. I assume "Dry measure" is some kind of industry standard material density.

Tablespoon is a volume measurement, while grams is a mass measurement. You need to know the substance being measured to do this conversion, and know its density. If it is a powder, you need to know its bulk density as opposed to the particle desity. Also the bulk desity can vary significantly depending on how tightly the powder is packed in.

Disagree- there are a lot of bright individuals on this Planet.
