US Gallon
A US gallon (gal) is a common unit of volume used mainly in the United States for measuring liquids such as fuel, milk, and other beverages. One US gallon equals 4 quarts, 8 pints, or 128 fluid ounces, making it a practical size for everyday containers and large-scale liquid purchases. It’s widely recognized at gas stations and in grocery stores, where gallon jugs are frequently sold.
Because the US gallon differs from the Imperial gallon used in the UK, conversions can get confusing across countries. An online converter helps accurately translate gallons into liters or other units for travel, shopping, or cooking with international recipes.
Teaspoon
A teaspoon (tsp) is a small US customary unit of volume used mainly for measuring ingredients in cooking and beverages. One US teaspoon equals one-third of a tablespoon or about 4.93 milliliters, making it ideal for small additions like salt, spices, extracts, or medicine doses. It’s one of the most common measurements in recipes and is included in almost every set of measuring spoons.
Because metric measurements are widely used outside the United States, converting teaspoons to milliliters, tablespoons, or cups can be helpful when following international recipes. A conversion tool ensures accuracy so results remain consistent in the kitchen.
