300 g of uncooked white rice in cups
300 g ≈ 1.62 cups
That is also 25.9 tablespoons, at 185 g per US cup.
How to measure it
1½ cups + 1 tablespoon + 2¾ teaspoons
1.62 cups is a number, not an instruction — there is no 1.62 cup in the drawer. The line above is the same quantity in the sizes you actually own, and following it lands within a teaspoon of 300 g.
Spoon the uncooked white rice into the cup and level it off. Scooping straight from the bag packs it down; on flour that alone is worth about 20%, which is more than the difference this page is measuring.

Why this number moves
Uncooked. Rice roughly triples in weight when cooked, so a cup of dry rice yields about three cups cooked.
This page uses 185 g per US cup. If your recipe came with its own figure, use theirs — internal consistency matters more than which table is right.

Frequently asked questions
How many cups is 300 g of uncooked white rice?

How do I measure 300 g of uncooked white rice without scales?
1½ cups + 1 tablespoon + 2¾ teaspoons. Spoon it in and level the top rather than scooping — scooping compacts uncooked white rice and can add a fifth to the weight.
Is this the same in the UK?
The gram figure is, the cup is not. A US cup is 236.6 ml and the metric cup used in Australia and much of Europe is 250 ml, so a European cup of uncooked white rice weighs about 195 g. These pages use the US cup.
