As a volume, 3/4 cup is 180 ml, 12 tablespoons or 36 teaspoons for any ingredient (US cup, 240 ml).
Three quarters of a cup is a common measure for sugar, milk and melted butter in cakes and batters. Because it is three quarters of a full cup, its weight is three quarters of the one-cup figure, so three quarters of a cup of flour is about 94 grams and of sugar about 150 grams.
Also written as 0.75 cup, three quarter cup.

Why three quarters of a cup is not a single weight
The reason 3/4 cup of flour and 3/4 cup of honey weigh nothing alike is density. Flour is light and full of air, so three quarters of a cup of it is only 93.8 grams. Honey is one of the densest things in the kitchen, so the same three quarters of a cup weighs 255 grams. To turn a volume like three quarters of a cupinto grams you multiply by the ingredient's density in grams per cup, which is exactly what the table above does for you.
For everyday cooking, measuring three quarters of a cup with a measuring cup is perfectly fine. For baking, where the ratio of flour to sugar to fat decides whether a cake is tender or dense, weighing to the gram is far more reliable. Cup sizes also differ by country; see cup sizes compared.

Frequently asked questions
How many grams is 3/4 cup?
It depends on the ingredient, because a cup measures volume and every ingredient has its own density. In US cups of 240 ml, 3/4 cup is 93.8 grams of all-purpose flour, 150 grams of granulated sugar, 170 grams of butter and 180 grams of water. The table above lists 3/4 cup in grams for all 48 ingredients.
How many grams is 0.75 cup?
0.75 cup is the decimal way of writing 3/4 cup, so it weighs exactly the same: 93.8 grams of all-purpose flour, 150 grams of granulated sugar or 170 grams of butter. As a volume it is 180 ml in US cups.
How many grams of flour is 3/4 cup?
Three quarters of a cup of all-purpose flour weighs 93.8 grams when it is spooned into the cup and levelled off. Scooping straight from the bag packs the flour down and adds weight, so a scale is the surest way to hit 93.8 grams. Bread flour and cake flour weigh slightly differently; both are in the table above.
How many grams of sugar is 3/4 cup?
Three quarters of a cup of granulated white sugar weighs 150 grams. Packed brown sugar is heavier at 165 grams and powdered sugar lighter at 90 grams, so check which sugar the recipe means.
How many grams of butter is 3/4 cup?
Three quarters of a cup of butter weighs 170 grams, which is 1.5 sticks of US butter, or 12 tablespoons. A full US cup of butter is 227 grams, which is two sticks.
How many tablespoons is 3/4 cup?
3/4 cup is 12 tablespoons or 36 teaspoons, because one US cup holds 16 tablespoons of 15 ml. That holds for every ingredient, since cups and tablespoons both measure volume; only the weight in grams changes.
Is 3/4 cup the same in US and metric cups?
Not quite. This page uses the US cup of 240 ml, so 3/4 cup is 180 ml. A metric cup is 250 ml, so 3/4 cup in metric cups is 188 ml and holds 97.7 grams of flour instead of 93.8. Weighing in grams removes the difference.
