How many milliliters are in 1 cup?

• A. 240 mL
• B. 120 mL
• C. 480 mL
• D. 60 mL

Answer: (A)

Converting between cups and milliliters in liquid measurements. In the US system, one cup is defined as eight fluid ounces, and one fluid ounce is about 29.57 milliliters. Multiply to get roughly 236.6 mL, which is commonly rounded to 240 mL for practical use. So one cup equals about 240 milliliters. This helps when switching between cup measurements and metric milliliters in recipes or dosages. The other amounts correspond to different sizes: a half cup is about 120 mL, two cups are about 480 mL, and a quarter cup is about 60 mL.
