The specific gravity of olive varies. Most research shows it to be between 0.915 and 0.918. Using the median (0.9165) of that spread will show that one gallon of olive oil weighs about 7.64 pounds per gallon or 7.64 pounds per 128 fluid ounces. This is found by multiplying the specific gravity of the oil (0.9165) by the weight of one gallon of water. Water weighs 8.34 pounds per gallon. Now a simple proportional setup will do the rest. Solving for x in the following problem will reveal the number of fluid ounces in one pound of olive oil: 7.64/128 = 1/x 7.64x = 128 x = about 16.75 Therefore, we can say that 16.75 fluid ounces of olive oil weighs about one pound.
