Answer 2

There are:

48 teaspoons in a cup
3 teaspoons in a tablespoon
16 tablespoons in a cup
4 cups in a quart
4 quarts in a gallon


The number of cups in a pound will vary by the weight of the matter you are measuring. A cup is volume, a pound is weight.



Edit: Changes due to your additional questions.

The number of ounces in a pound will once again depend on whether you are talking about volume or weight. Since you have been mixing your volume and weight, I cannot safely assume you mean the normally assumable.

16 ounces (weight) in a pound.

The number of ounces (liquid) in a pound will vary depending upon the weight of the liquid.


The number of cups in an ounce will depend on if you are talking about liquid measure (ounces) or weight (ounces).

There is 1/8 cup in a liquid ounce. Or putting it in more familiar terms, there are 8 liquid ounces in a cup.

The number of cups in an ounce (weight) will depend on the weight of the material you are measuring. A cup is a measurement of volume and an ounce (weight) is, of course, a measurement of weight. There is no direct correlation. There will be a substantial difference in the number of ounces a cup of marshmallows will weigh compared to what a cup of brown sugar will weigh.
