If a pound is equal to 16 ounces, how many cups are in a pound?

The number of cups in a pound depends on the substance being measured. However, as an example, if we consider a substance with a density of 1 (such as water), we can say that 1 cup is equal to 8 ounces.

Since 1 pound is equal to 16 ounces, and 1 cup is equal to 8 ounces, we can calculate that there are 2 cups in a pound of water.
