How many cups are in a 5-pound bag of sugar?!
Answers: I agree with Bert C
There are 8 ounces in a cup and 16 ounces in a pound --- so 10 cups.

8 ounces is a cup
Dry measure differs from wet...so start measuring and let us know.
Can that be worked out on a calculator? lol §
approx. 10
One cup of sugar = 7.1 oz by weight.
5 lbs of sugar weighs 80 oz
so, 80/7.1=about 11 1/4 cups of sugar in 5 lbs.

Hi ya, I think if you really measure it it comes out just over 11 cups... even though 8oz, is one cup, that is in reference to liquid... I'd help you with your homework... no problem...lets ask Jeeves... met him on a road trip with my friend.. he knows all..
Why on earth would you want to know how many cups are in a 5 pond bag of suger? It makes no sense what so ever.
2 cups of sugar equals one pound. Therefore, 10 cups of sugar equals five pounds.
