  • Cup (c): A standard unit for measuring liquids.
  • 🥛
  • Pint (pt): Equal to 2 cups.
  • 🍶
  • Quart (qt): Equal to 2 pints or 4 cups.
  • 💧
  • Gallon (gal): Equal to 4 quarts, 8 pints, or 16 cups.
  • 💡
  • Key Conversions:
    • 1 pt = 2 c
    • 1 qt = 2 pt = 4 c
    • 1 gal = 4 qt = 8 pt = 16 c
  • Formula Reminders: When converting from a larger unit to a smaller unit, you multiply. When converting from a smaller unit to a larger unit, you divide. For example, to convert gallons to cups, multiply the number of gallons by 16: $cups = gallons \times 16$
