How Many Ounces in a cup
It depends on how you measure the cup. The standard cup in a coffee shop measures about 250 ml or 8.45 fluid ounces. The standard measuring cup in your kitchen measures about 240 ml or 8.1 fluid ounces. A regular 8 oz cup is only 237 ml or 7.8 fluid ounces.
Ounces are used to measure liquid volume. There are 16 ounces in 1 cup. For example, if you have five ounces of something, then it's equal to one-third of a cup.
A cup is a unit of volume and not a measure of weight. In other words, a cup is a unit of liquid volume and not of weight. A cup of sugar is not the same as a cup of water. Therefore, if you have any kind of sugar in a cup and take away the sugar, you will have less than a cup (i.e. the volume of water will be more than a cup).
One cup equals eight ounces. The pints, quarts and gallons are used for serving size. An addition of one cup of a liquid will be equal to three fourths of a pint.
A cup can be measured in two different ways. Liquid volume: 1 cup = 16 teaspoons = 48 tablespoons = 240 ml. Dry volume: 1 cup = 16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons = 240 ml.
