Previous answer- There are 2 cups in a 16 oz box since 1 cup is 8 oz

What most people don't relies is a 16oz box of macaroni is actually measured in net weight not volume. A cup is volume. 1 cup of macaroni WEIGHS approximately 3.8 to 4 ounces. Therefor, there are between 4 and 5 CUPS of dry macaroni in a 16 OUNCE box.

The only way to tell is if the 25.6 ounces is volume. If it's weight, there's no way to tell without knowing what the material being weighted is. For volume, 25.6 ounces is 3.2 cups (8 ounces per cup). For weight, the volume changes for different materials. An ounce of sugar takes up less room than an ounce of flour, so you can convert ounces of weight to a measure of volume like a cup.
