How many 1 3 cups does it take to make half a cup?

The answer is one and a half.

Though this looks tricky to discover, it is easy to find by finding a common denominator. This is done by multiplying the bottom numbers of each fraction, in this case 3 and 2, to get 6. There are two sixths in a third (or 2/6), and three sixths in a half (3/6). These forms, a third and a half, are the simplest expressions of fractions. Thus, to find the ratio of a third to a half, and given the sixths that we have, we must find out what fraction of six sixths, or one, there are in each size of cup. There are 2 lots of 3/6s in a whole cup, and 3 lots of 2/6s in a whole cup, when adding together 1/3 cups and 1/2 cups, so the ratio is 3:2. This works out in its simplest form as 1.5:1 and so, for every one 1/2 cup, there are 1.5 1/3 cups.

Mathematics specialises in tools which can be utilised to work out such equations, in its branch called pure maths. Applied mathematics is more useful for statistics and probabilities, and in use for computational mathematics which uses binary forms of numbers to encode new programs.

If 3/4 cup floor and 1/3 butter makes dozen cookies, what would you have if you had 4 and 1/4 cup floor and 1 and 1/2 butter.

Aviva is traveling by train to Miami.  Half way to her destination she falls asleep. When she awoke, the distance remaining on the trip was 1/3 of the distance traveled while she was asleep.  How much of the entire trip did she sleep?

May God bless all.    We can take the unknown number as 'a' . Then ,  a *1/3 = 1/2  a = (1/2)/(1/3)    = (1/2)*(3/1)    = (1/2)*(3)    = 3/2 = 1.5  1.5, i.e, one and a half .  There is no other answer, I think.

3/2 cup, i.e. 1.5 cups of 1/3 cup equals 1/2 cup

Three 1/3 cups would equal one cup.

One third of a cup equals five tablespoons, plus one teaspoon. A tablespoon is equivalent to three teaspoons, so one third of a cup contains 16 teaspoons. As one cup equals 48 teaspoons, three 1/3 cups would add up to the equivalent of a cup.

These kinds of measurements are most commonly used in cooking and recipes. There are 8 ounces in one cup, so in a third of a cup, there is 2.66 ounces.

A cup of butter generally weighs about 8 ounces. 1 ounce is the equivalent of 28.34 grams, so one cup of butter weighs around 227 grams.

A third of a cup of all-purpose flour is equal to 43 grams or 1.5 ounces. A third of a cup of rolled oats is equivalent to 28 grams and 1 ounce. A third of a cup of white sugar is equivalent to 67 grams and 2.37 ounces. A third of a cup of honey or syrup is equivalent to 113 grams or four ounces.

A third of a cup of milk is equivalent to 75 millilitres. If you need to cut a recipe by a third, then use a third of a cup measurements. For example a third of a cup of butter will weigh approximately 79 grams.

Three of the 1/3 cups equals 1 cup.

When you've been out of school a long time and don't use measurements often, you forget these things. Be nice!

One cup would be equal to three thirds of a cup. For example, say if you have a problem that asks how many 1/3 are in two 1/3 cups, the answer would be two, because 3/3 = 1cup 3/3, 3/3 times 2=6/6 and 6/6 would equal two cups.
