Sure, Mary — 3 cups of water is 24 ounces, but other ingredients weigh different amounts. Think about it: 1 cup of popped popcorn doesn't weigh the same as a cup of mashed potatoes, right? So 1 cup of all-purpose flour weighs 4 14 onces, which translates to 3 cups weighing 12 3/4 ounces. Check out our handy weight chart for more information. Hope this helps — PJH
