Cup (US)

The US cup is a unit of volume in the U.S. customary system. It is equal to 1/16th of a US gallon, or 1/4th of a US quart, which is equivalent to 8 fluid ounces or approximately 0.236588 liters. It is commonly used in cooking and nutrition, particularly in recipes and food packaging.

Origin:

The US cup has its origins in the British system, where cups were used as a standard measurement for liquids. However, the US cup, as it is known today, was standardized in the 19th century to be 1/16th of a US gallon or 8 fluid ounces. This standard was established to provide a consistent measurement for both liquid and dry ingredients, especially in cooking and food preparation. Despite the global adoption of the metric system, the US cup continues to be widely used in the United States for recipes, food labeling, and nutritional information.

Fluid Ounce (US)

The US fluid ounce (fl oz) is a unit of volume in the U.S. customary system. It is equal to 1/128th of a US gallon, or 1/16th of a US pint, and is approximately 29.5735 milliliters. The US fluid ounce is commonly used to measure small liquid quantities, such as beverages, ingredients in cooking, or medicinal dosages.

Origin:

The US fluid ounce was originally based on the British fluid ounce, which was historically defined as 1/160th of an imperial gallon. However, the US fluid ounce was standardized in the 19th century and redefined to be 1/128th of a US gallon to align with the U.S. liquid measurement system. Over time, the US fluid ounce became the standard for measuring liquid volumes in the United States, particularly in recipes, beverage labeling, and pharmaceuticals. Despite the global shift to the metric system, the US fluid ounce remains widely used in the United States for liquid volume measurements.
