There are 24 teaspoons in 1/2 cup
- 1/8 cup = 6 tsp
- 1/4 cup = 12 tsp
- 1/3 cup = 16 tsp
- 1/2 cup = 24 tsp
- 2/3 cup = 32 tsp
- 3/4 cup = 36 tsp
- 1 cup = 48 tsp
Now, let's find out how to convert fractional cups to teaspoons.
How to Convert 1/2 Cup to Teaspoons
To calculate how many teaspoons are in 1/2 U.S. cup, you need to multiply the volume in cups by the conversion ratio of 48 teaspoons/cup.
One cup is equal to 48 teaspoons, so this is the formula to convert fractions of a cup:
teaspoons = cups × 48
The volume in teaspoons is equal to the volume in cups multiplied by 48.
To convert 1/2 cup to teaspoons, substitute 1/2 for the volume in cups:
teaspoons = (1/2 c × 48) = 24 tsp
Thus, there are 24 teaspoons in 1/2 cup.
How Many Teaspoons Are In 1/2 Metric Cup?
The conversion ratio is a little different for metric cups since they are a bit larger than a U.S. cup. Since one metric cup is equal to 250 mL and a metric teaspoon is equal to 5 mL, there are 50 teaspoons in one metric cup (250 mL ÷ 5 m = 50).
This means that the formula to calculate how many teaspoons are in 1/2 metric cup is:
teaspoons = (1/2 c × 50) = 25 tsp
So, there are 25 teaspoons in 1/2 metric cup. For a cook or baker, this can alter the outcome of a recipe, so it's essential to keep this difference in mind.
