5 pounds of rice equals 11.3 ( ~ 11 1/3) cups*
About rice measurements
Uncooked rice pours to about 0.85 g/ml, roughly 200 g per US cup, but grain shape rules the number. Short, round grains nest tightly and weigh more per cup, while long-grain basmati leaves more space between grains, so a cup of one variety is not the same weight as another.
