How it’s calculated

A US cup holds exactly 8 US fluid ounces (236.588 mL). A UK (imperial) cup is 10 imperial fl oz (284.1 mL), and a metric cup is 250 mL, about 8.45 US fl oz. These are fluid ounces (volume), not weight ounces.

1 cup (US) = 8 fl oz (US) (exact) · 1 fl oz (US) = 0.125 cup (US) (exact)

fl oz (US) = cup (US) × 8

  • Multiply the value in US cups by 8.
  • To go back, divide by 8 (or multiply by 0.125).
  • 1 cup (US) = 8 fl oz (US) · 1 fl oz (US) = 0.125 cup (US)

Step by step

  1. Find the conversion factor

    By definition 1 cup (US) = 0.0002365882365 m³ and 1 fl oz (US) = 0.0000295735295625 m³, so 1 cup (US) = 8 fl oz (US). Source: NIST SP 811 / Handbook 44.

  2. Multiply by the factor written as a fraction

    Put cup (US) in the denominator so it cancels, leaving fl oz (US).

  3. Calculate (unrounded)

  4. Round the answer

    Rounded to 5 significant figures.

Answer: 8 fl oz (US)

Formula: fl oz (US) = cup (US) × 8. Factors last reviewed 2026-10-27.
