Default Frustrated Cook

Its my contention that 270g is 1 1/2 cups + 3 tablespoons.....no
teaspoons??? 160g=16T 10g=1T 270g-240g=30g 30g/10g=3T

Hi,

I have been having trouble trying to work out a formula for the following.

One cup of flour weighs 160g.

If I had 240g of flour I would have 1 1/2 Cups.

Now the hard bit, there are 16 Tablespoons and 48 teaspoons in a cup of
flour.

If I had 270g of flour I want the formula to have an end result of - 1 1/2
C, 2T and 3t - rounded off as close as possible.

In the cup measures, I would only want to use 1/4 C, 1/3 C, 1/2 C, 2/3 C,
3/4 C and 1C and so on. I know 5t should read 1T and 1t, however, getting
a formula to work is beyond me at this stage.

If anyone can help, It would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Wazza McG
