Quarts, Pints & Cups Converter

One tap through the whole US volume ladder

US liquid measures step up in a tidy chain: 1 gallon holds 4 quarts, 1 quart holds 2 pints, 1 pint holds 2 cups, and 1 cup holds 8 fluid ounces. Put that together and a single gallon equals 4 quarts, 8 pints, 16 cups, or 128 fluid ounces. This converter bakes those exact factors in, so you never have to chain the math by hand or second-guess whether you carried a two somewhere.

Why cups and quarts trip people up

The awkward jumps are the middle ones. A quart is 4 cups, a pint is 2 cups, and half a cup is 4 fluid ounces — easy to mix up when a recipe calls for "a pint of stock" but your measuring cup only shows cups.

FAQ

Is this US or UK (imperial) measure?

These are US liquid units. A US gallon is about 3.785 liters, smaller than an imperial gallon, so imperial pints and quarts will differ.

How many cups are in a quart?

Exactly 4 cups. A pint is 2 cups, and a gallon is 16 cups.

How many fluid ounces in a cup?

8 fluid ounces per cup, which makes 16 fl oz in a pint and 32 fl oz in a quart.

Does this handle dry cups too?

It converts by liquid volume only. Dry ingredients weigh differently, so use a weight-based chart when precision matters for baking.
