Dry/Solid Combination Measurements 3/4 cup 2/3 cup 1/8 Cup = 2 Tablespoons ½ cup 1/3 cup 1/3 cup ¼ cup

ABBREVIATIONS Use in recipes to conserve printed space

EQUIVALENTS Definition: the same as Useful when decreasing and increasing recipes Useful when making tricky measurements

Equivalents 1/3 cup = 5 T. + 1 t. (5 1/3 T.)
