Conversion Formula
The formula for converting teaspoons (tsp) to cups involves knowing how many teaspoons are in one cup. There are 48 teaspoons in a single cup. So, to find how many cups a certain number of teaspoons equal, you divide the teaspoons by 48.
Mathematically, it looks like this:
Cups = Teaspoons ÷ 48
This works because the unit “cup” is larger than “teaspoon,” and 48 teaspoons combine to make one cup. So dividing teaspoons by 48 scales the smaller unit up to the larger one.
Example: Convert 80 tsp to cups step-by-step:
- Start with 80 tsp.
- Divide 80 by 48.
- 80 ÷ 48 = 1.6667 cups.
- Result: 80 tsp equals about 1.6667 cups.
Conversion Example
- Convert 24 tsp to cups:
- Take 24 teaspoons.
- Divide by 48 (since 48 tsp = 1 cup).
- 24 ÷ 48 = 0.5 cups.
- So, 24 tsp equals half a cup.
- Convert 96 tsp to cups:
- Start with 96 teaspoons.
- Divide 96 by 48.
- 96 ÷ 48 = 2 cups.
- Therefore, 96 tsp equals 2 cups.
- Convert 12 tsp to cups:
- Begin with 12 teaspoons.
- Divide 12 by 48.
- 12 ÷ 48 = 0.25 cups.
- Hence, 12 tsp equals a quarter cup.
- Convert 36 tsp to cups:
- Use 36 teaspoons.
- Divide 36 by 48.
- 36 ÷ 48 = 0.75 cups.
- So, 36 tsp equals three-quarters of a cup.

Conversion FAQs
Can I use the same conversion for dry and liquid ingredients?
The conversion between teaspoons and cups is based purely on volume, so it applies to both dry and liquid ingredients. However, density differences mean the weight will change, so measuring by volume keeps the conversion consistent.
Why divide teaspoons by 48 to get cups?
Because 1 cup equals 48 teaspoons, dividing the total teaspoons by 48 converts the smaller unit into the larger one. This ratio is fixed and used in standard US measurement systems.
Are teaspoon and tablespoon conversions related to cups too?
Yes, 3 teaspoons make 1 tablespoon, and 16 tablespoons equal 1 cup. This means 48 teaspoons equal 1 cup, linking all three units in a clear ratio for conversions.
What if I need more precision than four decimals?
The tool rounds to 4 decimal places for simplicity, but for scientific or very precise cooking, you can extend decimal places or use exact fractions. More decimals increase accuracy at the cost of simplicity.
Does this conversion work the same in other countries?
Measurements can vary internationally. The US teaspoon and cup are standard here, but other countries may use slightly different volumes for these units, so conversions might differ outside the US.
