Approximately correct, but the weight has nearly doubled.
One pound of dry lentils typically yields about 2.5 to 3 cups of cooked lentils. When cooked, lentils roughly triple in volume, so from one pound (which is approximately 2 cups dry), you can expect to get around 6 cups of cooked lentils. The exact amount can vary slightly depending on the type of lentils and the cooking method used.
That is approximately 0.846 cup of dry green lentils
Three and 1/2 cups
To make 15 ounces of cooked lentils, you'll need about 5 ounces of dry lentils. Lentils roughly triple in weight when cooked, so for every ounce of dry lentils, you can expect to yield about three ounces of cooked lentils. Therefore, starting with 5 ounces of dry lentils should give you the desired 15 ounces when cooked.
One cup of dry lentils typically yields about 2 to 2.5 cups of cooked lentils, as they expand during cooking by absorbing water. Therefore, the cooked weight of lentils equivalent to one cup of dry lentils is approximately 200 to 250 grams. This can vary slightly depending on the type of lentils and cooking method used.
1 quart = 4 cups 1 cup = 0.25 quart
250 grams of lentils is approximately 1.25 cups when measured dry. The exact volume can vary slightly based on the type of lentils and how they are packed. Lentils are a nutritious source of protein and fiber, making them a great addition to various dishes.

1 cup dried yields approximately 2 cups cooked, so 1/2 cup dried makes 1 cup cooked
Green lentils (the most common kind in north America) almost double their weight when cooked. So 450 gm of cooked Green lentils would have been about 230 grams of dry lentils.
About 2.4 cups
Approximately 5 cups.
