Hi! Just reconfirming here at the top that there are 16 cups in 1 gallon. Here are some other similar liquid cooking conversions you might find useful:

4 cups = 1 quart (or 2 pints)
1 cup = ½ pint
½ cup = 8 tablespoons
⅛ cup = 2 tablespoons

Happy cooking!

1 cup = 8 ounces so you are dealing with 8 ounces for your cup size

16 cups in a gallon therefore 16x8=128 ounces in a gallon

There are 4 fluid cups to one quart. There are 4 fluid quarts to one gallon. 4 x 4 = 16.

That's a US gallon. In Canada we used to use quarts & gallons, in the same ratio, but with Imperial measure: 5 cups per quart, 4 quarts per gallon, so 20 cups per gallon. If you are using a Canadian or British recipe, this is your answer.

1 gallon = 4 quarts = 16 cups = 196 tablespoons = 768 teaspoons
1 quart = 4 cups =
1 cup = 16 tablespoons
1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons

If "1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons", surely it isn't " 196 tablespoons = 768 teaspoons".

George you are of course correct. The cups and teaspoons listed above are correct but somehow the interim statement about tablespoons is wrong. 16 cups X 16 tablespoons/cup = 256, not 196.
