Usually pasta will increase to twice its size by being cooked. For 6lbs uncooked, I would estimate 3lbs raw. A cup is a measurement of volume, and a pound is a measurement of weight so, the conversion between the two will vary.. 1lb (450g) butter or margarine = 2 cups (or four sticks). 1lb (450g) flour = 4 cups. 1lb 450 g, granulated or caster, (superfine), sugar = 2 cups. 1lb 450 g, icing sugar (confectioners' sugar) = 3 cups.

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.
