How the conversion works
Tablespoons measure volume and grams measure weight, so the conversion depends on the density of the granulated sugar. One US cup of granulated sugar weighs about 200 g, so one tablespoon weighs 12.5 g.
To convert, multiply the number of tablespoons by the weight of one tablespoon. A US cup is 236.6 mL, 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons.
