Quart
A quart (qt) is a US customary unit of volume commonly used for measuring liquids like milk, juice, and cooking ingredients. One quart equals 4 cups, 2 pints, or 32 fluid ounces, making it a convenient size for everyday food and beverage containers. The word comes from “quarter,” representing one-quarter of a US gallon.
Quarts can be confusing in international contexts because the US and UK (Imperial) systems define the quart differently. A conversion tool helps ensure correct results when switching between quarts, liters, gallons, and other units used around the world.
Fluid Ounce
A fluid ounce (fl oz) is a common US customary unit of volume used to measure liquids such as beverages, cooking ingredients, and personal care products. One US fluid ounce equals 1/8 of a cup or about 29.57 milliliters. You’ll often find this unit printed on drink bottles, medicine labels, and kitchen tools where precise small measurements are needed.
Because the fluid ounce is commonly used in the United States while many other countries rely on the metric system, converting fluid ounces to milliliters, cups, or liters is a frequent need. A converter helps provide quick, accurate results that make cooking and product comparisons easier.
