Convert ounce to cup

Learn how to convert 1 ounce to cup step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (o u n c e) = x (c u p)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(c u b i c m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (o u n c e) = 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 5} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 5} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (c u p) = 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 4} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 4} (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (o u n c e) = x (c u p)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 5} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 4} \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 5} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 5} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

2.84130625 \times 10^{- 5} = x \times 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 4}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

2.84130625 \times {10^{- 5}}^{10^{- 1}} = x \times 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 4}

Simplify

10^{- 1} = x

Switch sides

x = 10^{- 1}

Solve

x

x = 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (o u n c e) = 10^{- 1} (c u p)
