Formula & worked example

US fluid ounces = millilitres ÷ 29.5735. Imperial fluid ounces = millilitres ÷ 28.4131. Millilitres = fluid ounces × the same factor. Cups = fluid ounces ÷ 8; tablespoons = fluid ounces × 2; teaspoons = fluid ounces × 6.

500 ml ÷ 29.5735 = 16.91 US fluid ounces — so a 500 ml bottle is just over 2 US cups. In the other direction, 8 US fluid ounces × 29.5735 = 236.59 ml.

Limitations — read this before you rely on it

Default basis is the US fluid ounce (29.5735 ml); the Imperial fluid ounce (28.4131 ml) is about 4% smaller, so mixing the systems up changes recipe results — check which system your recipe uses. This is a volume converter: it cannot convert millilitres to weight ounces without knowing the liquid's density, and cup/tablespoon figures use US customary measures. Displayed values are rounded to your chosen decimal places.

Frequently asked questions

Type the millilitres and read the fluid ounces instantly, with cups, tablespoons and teaspoons. You can also convert fluid ounces back to millilitres.

Divide millilitres by 29.5735 for US fluid ounces. For example, 250 ml ÷ 29.5735 = 8.45 US fl oz.

Fluid ounces measure volume (how much space a liquid takes up); weight ounces measure mass (how heavy something is). A millilitre of honey weighs more than a millilitre of water, so volume cannot be converted to weight without the liquid's density. This converter is for volume only.

Open Advanced options and switch to Imperial (1 Imperial fl oz = 28.4131 ml). The default is the US fluid ounce (29.5735 ml), which US recipes use.
