Equivalent Measurements

I found the niftiest (is that a word?) magnet at the dollar store a couple of years ago. It lists equivalent measurements from a gallon down to a teaspoon. Yay! I use it constantly when I'm cooking (especially when doubling or tripling a recipe). Since it's proven to be super-useful in my house, I thought I'd share:

1 gallon = 4 quarts = 8 pints = 16 cups
1/2 gallon = 2 quarts = 4 pints = 8 cups
1/4 gallon = 1 quart = 2 pints = 4 cups
1/8 gallon = 1/2 quart = 1 pint = 2 cups
1/2 quart = 1 pint = 2 cups = 16 fl oz
1/4 quart = 1/2 pint = 1 cup = 8 fl oz
1 cup = 8 fl oz = 16 Tbsp = 48 tsp
3/4 cup = 6 fl oz = 12 Tbsp = 36 tsp
2/3 cup = 5 1/3 fl oz = 10 Tbsp = 32 tsp
1/2 cup = 4 fl oz = 8 Tbsp = 24 tsp
1/3 cup = 2 2/3 fl oz = 5 Tbsp = 16 tsp
1/4 cup = 2 fl oz = 4 Tbsp = 12 tsp
1/8 cup = 1 fl oz = 2 Tbsp = 6 tsp
= 1/2 fl oz = 1 Tbsp = 3 tsp
