Cup
A cup is a traditional unit of volume used primarily in culinary measurements for liquids and bulk cooking ingredients. In the United States customary system, a standard cup is defined as 8 fluid ounces, equivalent to 1/16 of a US gallon or approximately 236.588 milliliters. In contrast, metric cups used in Commonwealth nations like Australia and Canada are standardized at exactly 250 milliliters, illustrating regional variations in culinary trade standards.
