125 grams of butter in cups

125 g of butter = 0.55 cups
about ½ cup · 8.8 tablespoons

125 g ÷ 226.8 g per cup = 0.551 cups

A cup of butter weighs 226.8 g, so 125 g fills 0.55 cups — about ½ cup. Going this direction is the one most worth doing with a scale rather than a cup: measuring about ½ cup accurately by eye is hard, and weighing 125 g is not. The source line is "1 cup = 2 sticks = 1/2 pound = 226.8 g", from King Arthur Baking.
