Common questions
Why does the calculator show 0.563 rather than 0.5625?
The exact value is 9/16 US cup, or 0.5625 cup. The calculator rounds its decimal display to three places: 0.563.
Can I use a 250 mL metric measuring cup?
Measure approximately 133.1 mL using the metric scale. Do not fill a 250 mL cup to the 9/16 mark: 9/16 here means a fraction of a smaller US customary cup.
