The short answer is, 24 oz of general purpose flour is about 5 1/3 cups.

This turns out to be kind of a trick question because cup is a volume measurement and oz is a weight measurement. A measuring cup (a volume of 8 oz) full of water happens to weigh 8 oz, too, but that is rare. Think of a measuring cup full of marshmallows. It would not weigh as much as a cup of water, although both have the same volume.

The same is true for flour. A cup of it does not weigh as much as a cup of water. A cup of flour weighs about 4 1/2 oz, depending on the type of flour. the humidity, etc. There are sites on the internet that have converters if you need more accuracy.
