Kari's paper cup holds 6 fluid ounces. If one ounce is equivalent to 29.6 milliliters, how many milliliters does her paper cup hold?

Equivalent measurements: teaspoon, ounce, pint, pound

You will find a table of equivalent measurements in the back of many cookbooks:

1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons  

      1 cup = 16 tablespoon = 8 ounces  

    1/4 cup = 4 tablespoons  

    1/3 cup = 5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon  

     1 pint = 2 cups = 16 ounces  

    1 quart = 4 cups (2 pints) = 32 ounces  

   1 gallon = 4 quarts

    1 pound = 16 ounces

  1/2 pound = 8 ounces

  1/4 pound = 4 ounces

Note that a pint is 16 ounces of volume, while a pound is 16 ounces of weight. The popular rhyme "A pint's a pound, the world around" can help you remember this, but keep in mind that they're not really equivalent.

Doubling a recipe can be easy (just put in two of each measurement), but what if you need to divide a recipe in half? Here are some measurements that may help:

Measurement    1/2 Measurement

1/8 teaspoon   just a dash

1 tablespoon   1 1/2 teaspoons

1/4 cup        2 tablespoons

1/3 cup        2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons

3/4 cup        6 tablespoons

Step-by-step explanation:

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
