Tables of Weights & Measures
VOLUME AND LIQUID MEASURE
3 Teaspoons = 1 Tbs. (Tablespoons) = 14.8 ml (Milliliters)
2 Tablespoons = 1 Fl. oz. (Fluid ounces) = 29.6 ml
8 Fluid ounces = 16 Tablespoons = 1 Cup = 236.6 ml
2 Cups = 32 Tbs. = 16 Fl. oz. = 1 Pint = 473.1 ml
2 Pints = 64 Tbs. = 32 Fl. oz. = 1 Quart = 946.2 ml
1 Liter = 1000 ml = 0.2642 Gallons = 33.81 Ounces
1 Gallon = 4 Quarts = 128 Fl. oz. = 256 Tbs. = 3785 ml
WEIGHTS
28.35 Grams = 1 Ounce
16 Ounces = 1 Pound = 453.6 Grams
1 Kilogram = 1000 Gram = 2.205 Pounds
1 Gallon water = 8.34 Pounds = 3.8 Kilogram
1 Cu. Ft. water = 62.4 Pounds = 28.3 Kilogram
1 Ton = 2,000 Pounds = 907 Kilograms
USEFUL FORMULAS
Area of a Rect. or Square A= length x width
Area of a Circle A= 3.14 x Radius squared
Circumference of a Circle C= Diameter x 3.14
Diameter of a Circle D= Distance from side to side
Radius of a Circle R= 1/2 of Diameter
Acre Feet of a Pond (approx) AF= Length (ft.) x Width (ft,) x Avg. Depth (ft.) / 43,560
