1 Cup - ANSWER *8 fl oz = 236.588 ML
*A Metric Cup is slightly different: it is 250 milliliters (which is about 8.5 fluid ounces).
* 2 cups of a liquid is the same thing as 1 pint. So this measuring cup also holds 2 pints (4 cups equals 2
pints).
Grams - ANSWER Basic unit for mass
A paperclip weighs about 1 gram.
Hold one small paperclip in your hand. Does that weigh a lot? No! A gram is very light. That is why you
often see things measured in hundreds of grams.
Grams are often written as g (for short), so "300 g" means "300 grams".
A loaf of bread weighs about 700 g (for a nice sized loaf)
Milliliter - ANSWER A milliliter (that is "milli" and "liter" put together) is a very small amount of liquid.
Here is a milliliter of milk in a teaspoon.
It doesn't even fill the teaspoon!
If you collect about 20 drops of water, you will have 1 milliliter
And a teaspoon can hold about five milliliters
1 tsp=4.9 ML
1 / 2
3tsp = 1 tbsp = 14.7 ML
Milliliters are often written as ml (for short), so "100 ml" means "100 milliliters".
Measuring Cups - ANSWER * used to measure liquids, or powders like flour or sugar.
- they can also measure milliliters
*There are also special ones designed to hold an exact amount, such as these 1/2 cup and 1/4 cup

-They can also hold more than "1 Cup" of liquid.
Pint - ANSWER A customary unit of capacity equal to 2 cups
* 1 pint = 474 mL
Ounces - ANSWER a unit of weight in the U.S. Customary System, an avoirdupois unit equal to 437.5
grains or 28.35 grams
8 ounces is 1 cup
16 ounces is 2 cups which is 1 pint
32 ounces is 4 cups which is 2 pints which is 1 quart
128 ounces is 16 cups which is 8 pints which is 4 quarts which is 1 gallon
Fluid Ounces - ANSWER a customary unit of capacity
* 1 fl oz = 29.5735 mL
Volume - ANSWER A measure of the size of a body or region in three -dimensional space.
Amount of space occupied by a fluid
* 1 Liter = 1000mL
