This answer may vary as it is impossible to get the exact same amount of sugar in your cup each time. If we go by the rule that there are 8oz in a cup and 16oz in a pound then the answer would be 8 cups. That being said when I decided to break out my scale and measuring cups it ended up being 8 and 3/4 of a cup of granulated sugar in 4 pounds.
While a cup is 8 fluid ounces, this does not help for sugar. One cup of sugar is 7 ounces. So, 3 pounds of sugar is 48 ounces, which means 3 pounds of sugar is 6.857 cups.
8 cup’s
3 pounds of granulated sugar equals 7 1/2 cups.
One cup of sugar on my scale = 8 ounces. If my scale is correct, then there is 10 cups of sugar in 5 pounds of sugar.
That is 4 cups
1 pound equals 16 oz so 1 cup equals 8oz. Therefore, 1 pound would equal 2 cups, so, 10 pounds of sugar would equal 20 cups.
approximately 11.25 cups in 5 pounds of granulated sugar
There is 0.77 cups in 154 grams of granulated sugar. This means that there is 1 gram in 0.005 cups of granulated sugar.
