There are four cups of flour in one pound of flour.
One pound of flour is equal to approximately 3.5 cups.
there are four cups because if 20 cups of flour equal 5lb bag divide 20 by 5=4
Four cups of flour equal 1 lb., so there are 20 cups of flour in a 5 lb. bag.Also, two cups of sugar equal 1 lb., so there are 10 cups of sugar in a 5 lb. bag.Improved AnswerFour cups of flour does not equal one pound. That response is confusing weight with volume...one cup does not automatically equal eight ounces. The weight depends on the product inside that cup!All purpose flour in general provides 3.63 cups of flour per pound.
The correct answer is really dependant on the type of flour involved, but as a general rule of thumb, four cups. Soya flour is nearer 5 cups, sifted cake flour 4.25 cups.
As per flour manufacturers' definitions, one US cup of flour is 120g or 4.23 oz. Hence, there are 3.77 cups in one pound of flour.
there are 20 cups in a 5 lb. bag of flouramount doesn't have to do with it. lbs is weight*when baking, it often calls for weights instead of volume because some ingredients such as flour can be packed. For instance, if you scoop out a cup of flour and level the top of it, that is a cup...or if you PACK that flour into the cup, you can add more, which is also a cup....OR you can SIFT the flour which fluffs it up, so that is a cup.....You can see that a "cup" of four isn't too reliable, but a pound is a pound is a pound.
4 ounces of flour is equal to 0.5 cups. Wrong, it is a cup.
