Pet peeve:
Traditional Japanese cup = 180 ml
Japanese cup = 200 ml
US customary cup = 237 ml
US "legal" cup = 240 ml
Metric cup = 250 ml
Imperial cup = 284 ml

(49,445 posts)One quart equals 32 ounces.
Ergo, one quart equals 952mL
One pint equals 476mL
One cup equals 238mL
Ta-dah!

(35,699 posts)And if it is cooking just make 1 quart = 1 liter, which is close enough for cooking or government work. Since there are 4 cups in a quart, 1 cup = 1/4 liter or 250 ml. CEFGW or cooking.
If it is science, stick to the metric system and don't do the conversion.

(27,677 posts)I was just using ml to illustrate how many different cups there are.

(43,049 posts)the cup size depends on the band and underwire size and manufacturers all use different sizing methods anyway.
For instance, typical volumes from one manufacturer would be
Underwire size 32:
34A 32B 30C--310 cc
Underwire size 34:
36A 34B 32C 30D-- 390 cc
Whazzat?
Oh, ok...
Never mind.
