Conversion Between US Customary Units & Metric Systems Sheet Answer KeyA conversion factor is a way to represent the same quantity using different units of measurement with their corresponding numerical values. Often the units are abbreviated. Write the abbreviation for each unit: (multiple possible answers separated by comma)Teaspoon t, tsp 8) Milliliter mL, ml Tablespoon T, TB, Tbl, Tbsp 9) Liter L, lCup C, c 10) Gram gQuart qt 11) Milligram mg Gallon gal 12) Kilogram kgOunce oz 13) Pint ptPound lbKitchen math often requires converting quantities. The following examples show how to use conversion factors in equations. The following tables provide the conversion factors to convert from metric to US customary units or US customary units to metric.Example conversion:236.9ml (1 cup) beet juice 100% juice, no sugar added 28.3g (2 tbsp) gelatin To Convert Cups into Milliliters2 cup X 0.236588236 liter X 1000 millilter = 473.8 ml cup literTo Convert Tablespoons into Grams4 tablespoons X 14.15 gram = 56.6 g tablespoonCorrect Conversion for recipe To Convert Cups into Milliliters1 cup X 0.236588236 liter X 1000 millilter = 236.9 mL Cup literTo Convert Tablespoons into Grams2 tablespoons X 14.15 gram = 28.3 g tablespoonTables for Conversion Factors Table 1.
