Conversion FAQs

Can I convert teaspoons to cups by multiplying instead of dividing?

No, since one cup contains 48 teaspoons, you must divide the teaspoon amount by 48 to get cups. Multiplying would give incorrect results because it reverses the conversion relationship.

Does the conversion change if the ingredient is liquid or dry?

The conversion between teaspoons and cups is based on volume, so it stays the same for liquids or dry ingredients. However, weight conversions differ because density varies between substances.
