A hundredweight (Cwt) is a unit of weight commonly used in the United States and the UK. In the US, one hundredweight equals 100 pounds, while in the UK, it equals 112 pounds. For this converter, we typically use the US definition unless specified otherwise.

An ounce (Oz) is a smaller unit of weight, with 16 ounces making up one pound. It is widely used for measuring smaller quantities of items, especially in cooking and postal services.

The basic formula to convert from hundredweights to ounces is:
Ounces (Oz) = Hundredweights (Cwt) × 100 pounds per Cwt × 16 ounces per pound

So, if you know the weight in hundredweights, simply multiply that number by 1,600 (since 100 × 16 = 1,600) to get the equivalent weight in ounces. For example, 2 Cwt would be: 2 × 1,600 = 3,200 Oz.
