Convert Milliliter to Cup (US)
Milliliter
A milliliter (mL) is a unit of volume in the metric system, equal to 1/1,000th of a liter. One milliliter is equivalent to 1 cubic centimeter (cm³) and is used to measure small volumes, especially in liquids. It is commonly used in medical, scientific, and culinary contexts for precise measurements of fluids.
The milliliter is derived from the liter, which was introduced in the 18th century as part of the metric system during the French Revolution. The milliliter, being one thousandth of a liter, was created to measure smaller quantities of liquids or substances. The metric system's structure, based on powers of ten, made it easy to scale from larger units like the liter to smaller units like the milliliter. The milliliter has since become a standard unit of measurement in many fields, particularly in health, cooking, and scientific applications.
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.
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.
