Convert tablespoons to cups

Tablespoon (U.S.)

التعريف
A U.S. customary tablespoon (Tbsp US) is a volume measure rooted in cutlery. It equals ≈14.7868 mL (often rounded to 14.8 mL). In nutrition labeling on both sides of the Atlantic, a tablespoon is standardized to 15 mL.

History & Origin
Originally part of the 18th-century Apothecaries’ system, the tablespoon equaled 4 drams or ½ U.S. fluid ounce. Those relationships persist today in U.S. cooking measures.

الاستخدام الحديث
U.S. recipes commonly call for tablespoons when measuring small liquid and dry ingredients. Standard measuring spoons—rather than actual dining cutlery—ensure accuracy in kitchens.

U.S. Cup

التعريف
The U.S. customary cup (cup US) measures 236.588 mL, or 1/16 gal US, 8 fl oz, 16 Tbsp US, or 48 tsp US. (A “metric cup” elsewhere holds 250 mL.)

الاستخدام الحديث
Cups are the primary volume unit in American recipes for liquids and bulk ingredients. Calibrated measuring-cup sets safeguard consistency, unlike variable-sized drinking cups.
