The key to solving any unit conversion problem is to use a conversion factor, which tells us how many units of one measurement are equivalent to another. In this case, we are given that one cup of flour weighs 120 grams. This allows us to relate the two measurements \u2014 grams and cups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sadie measured out 690 grams of flour. Since we want to find out how many cups this amount represents, we divide the total grams by the number of grams per cup. That is:690&nbsp;grams120&nbsp;grams&nbsp;per&nbsp;cup=5.75&nbsp;cups\\frac{690 \\text{ grams}}{120 \\text{ grams per cup}} = 5.75 \\text{ cups}120&nbsp;grams&nbsp;per&nbsp;cup690&nbsp;grams\u200b=5.75&nbsp;cups<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This calculation tells us that 690 grams of flour is equal to 5.75 cups of flour. The result makes sense because 690 is a little less than 6 times 120. If she had used 720 grams, that would have been exactly 6 cups since 6\u00d7120=7206 \\times 120 = 7206\u00d7120=720. But since she used 690 grams \u2014 which is 30 grams less \u2014 she ended up with 0.25 cups less than 6. That is why the answer is 5.75 cups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding unit conversions is important not just in cooking or baking, but in many areas of science and everyday life. It helps ensure accuracy and consistency, especially when different units are used. This problem shows how knowing a simple rate or ratio allows you to convert from one unit to another in a straightforward way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"852\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-603.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34945\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-603.jpeg 852w, https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-603-250x300.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/gaviki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-603-768x923.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 852px) 100vw, 852px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sadie weights out 690 grams of flour.
