A US cup is a unit of volume equal to 8 US fluid ounces, half a US pint, or approximately 237 milliliters. It is the standard measuring unit in American cooking and baking recipes.
History
The US cup was standardized by Fannie Farmer in the 1896 Boston Cooking-School Cook Book, which advocated for standardized measurements in recipes. Before this, recipes used imprecise terms like 'a teacup' or 'a coffee cup.'
A cubic centimeter is a unit of volume equal to the volume of a cube with edges one centimeter long. It is equal to one milliliter and is commonly used in medicine (often abbreviated as 'cc') and in measuring engine displacement.
History
The cubic centimeter has been used since the adoption of the metric system. In medical contexts, it is often written as 'cc' (from cubic centimeter). Engine displacement in motorcycles and some cars is commonly expressed in cc (e.g., a 600cc engine).
