Facts about Cup (unit)

Basic facts: The cup (unit) is a measure of volume in cooking in the United States customary and imperial systems of measurement. The metric cup is represented as 250 milliliters. 1 US customary cup is equivalent to 236.5882365 milliliters as well as 1/16 US customary gallons, 8 US customary fluid ounces, 16 US customary tablespoons, or 48 U.S. customary teaspoons.

Use: As mentioned above, the cup (unit) is commonly used in cooking to measure liquids and bulk foods, often on the subject of serving sizes [serving size, also known as the portion size is the amount of a drink or food that is commonly served]. In terms of size, actual drinking cups can differ significantly and are generally not a good indication of this unit. Instead, standardized measuring cups are used.

Facts about Quart

Basic facts: The quart [symbol: qt] is a unit of volume in the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. The term is originated from the Latin “quartus” [meaning one-quarter] through the French “quart”. However, the French word “quart” has the same root, it frequently means something entirely different. There are multiple definitions of the quart. In the United States, a liquid quart is equivalent to around 0.946353 liters and a dry quart is equivalent to around 1.101221 liters. In the United Kingdom, the imperial quart is equivalent to 1.136523. In both the US and UK, the quart is equivalent to 1/4 of its respective gallon.

History: The base of the quart is the gallon, the definition of which has transformed throughout history based on the commodity being referenced. The English wine gallon is the base of the current definition of the United States quart. Up until 1824, this same definition was used for the imperial quart when the United Kingdom re-defined the imperial gallon.

Use: Currently, three kinds of quarts are used – the liquid quart and dry quart of the United States customary system and in the British imperial system – the imperial quart. All are around equal to one liter. So, the versions of the quart are used mainly in the United States and the United Kingdom, though, as a result of metrication in the UK, the use of the liter is now mandated.
