Question fava beans, onions, tomatoes

Hi everyone. Last week I found some Roasted Fava Beans (also known as broad beans) in the supermarket. I bought a packet & they tasted absolutely great. I've been trying to look up their nutritional value but I'm confused.
Here in carb counter, it says 100g has 19.65g carbs, 5.4g fibre
In fitday, it says 3.5 oz (appx 100g) 50.95g carbs, 14g fibre
In another website, it says a cup (I don't know what's that in grams, sorry) has 31.77g carbs, 9.47g fibre.
Can anyone please give me the correct answer?
Also, when I looked up the carbs of onions & tomatoes, I noticed that their cooked carb-value is quite different from their raw carb-value. For example, 100g of raw onions has 6g-11g carbs, while only 4.01g carbs for 100g of raw onions.
If I'm just gonna fry my onions with a little oil, should I count the "raw onions" carb-value? Please help me, I'm clueless. I thank u for your time. Happy low-carbing!
Bebe
