Millilitre and US cup

A millilitre is exactly one cubic centimetre, which is why medicine and laboratory work quote both and mean the same thing.

A US customary cup is 236.6 ml, but American nutrition labels use a "legal" cup of exactly 240 ml, and a metric cup in Australia is 250. A recipe scaled up tenfold will show which one it assumed.

Convert ml to cup: common questions

How many US cups are in a millilitre?

Exactly 0.00422675283773. One millilitre is 0.00422675283773 US cups, and the box above will do it for any figure you type.

Is this conversion exact, or rounded?

The ratio is exact. It is not a rounded constant typed into a table: it is derived from the definitions of the two units, so it agrees with any other correct converter to as many digits as you care to compare.

Why does another converter show a slightly different number?

Almost always rounding rather than disagreement. Many converters cut the answer to two or four decimals, and some carry a factor that was rounded before the multiplication rather than after. The figures here are computed from the exact definitions and only rounded on the way to the screen.

Where these figures come from

The claims this page makes about volume units are checkable, and these are the documents that settle them.

How this page works

The factor is a constant in the page and the arithmetic is four operations, so nothing is sent anywhere and nothing needs to be. The number you type never leaves the browser — there is no request for it to travel in.
