Quick answers

Short, sourced answers to the questions people (and AI assistants) ask most.

What is Cooking?
A cooking converter changes recipe measures between cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, millilitres and fluid ounces, and estimates grams for common ingredients.
Why does Cooking matter?
The same measure in your target unit; gram figures are ingredient-dependent estimates.
How is Cooking calculated?
Volume units convert through millilitres by fixed ratios. Converting volume to grams depends on the ingredient's density, so weight figures are estimates. Formula: 1 cup = 240 mL = 16 tbsp; 1 tbsp = 15 mL = 3 tsp; 1 tsp = 5 mL; 1 fl oz (US) = 29.57 mL.
What are common cooking mistakes?
Assuming a cup is the same everywhere - US 240 mL, metric 250 mL, UK 284 mL.
When should you use the Cooking Converter?
Use it to follow a recipe in different units, or scale quantities up or down.

I built a free fraction calculator that works instantly in the browser — no signup, no ads in your face
Body
Hey r/[subreddit],

I kept needing a quick fraction calculator and most options online were slow or behind paywalls, so I built one that:

• Runs 100% in your browser (your data never leaves your device)
• No signup, no email wall, no popups
• Loads in under a second on mobile

It covers the standard fraction use cases (fraction, math) and links out to the formula + worked examples if you want to learn the math.
