How to convert ounces to pounds

1 lb = 16 oz, so divide by 16 to go from ounces (avoirdupois) to pounds of butter (1 oz = 0.0625 lb).

lb = oz ÷ 16
oz = lb × 16

Cups and spoons convert to weight using the weight per cup for butter shown in the result; how the ingredient is measured (spooned, packed, sifted) changes it.

Worked example:

5 oz = 141.747615625 g
141.747615625 g ÷ 453.59237 g per lb = 0.3125 lb
