8 ounces = 1 cup
6 ounces of dried penne is about 3/4 of a cup.
1 cup dry pasta is about 75 gm ( I stress ABOUT due to all the different shapes ). -So 3 cups penne is about 225 gm, or 8 ounces.
Depends on WHAT pasta, all are different . - Be specific tell us fettucini, gemelli, penne etc.
Approximately 3.68 cups
depends how big the cup is.
It is 16 ounces, because one cup is 8 fluid ounces or just ounces.-Hannah Hannah, you're confusing fluid ounces, which measure volume, with ounces that measure mass... which I believe is the situation the asker is dealing with. In my experience, about 3/4 cup of dry pasta is 2 ounces.It also depends on what type of pasta you are measuring. Two cups of orzo will weight more than two cups of penne.
It depends on what type of pasta (shape) and whether raw or cooked.
Define the pasta -all are different.
Cooked or dry pasta ? If dry, a cup is about 3 ounces, so 4 cups would be 12 ounces.
Approximately 2.4 cups of cooked penne in a pound.
Specify WHICH pasta. All are different weight/volume ratio.
16 oz. dry rotini pasta should equal roughly 8 cups of cooked pasta (1 cup cooked pasta = 2 oz. dry pasta)
