How do I convert cc to cups?
Type a value in either box, and the answer shows it in the other unit as you type.
- Cups (cup)
- 0.004227
1 cm³ = 0.004227 cups.
Cups (cup): 0.004227. 1 cm³ = 0.004227 cups.
Cups (cup) by cubic centimeters (cm³)
How to calculate
Converts cubic centimeters (cm³) to cups (cup) and back, with the exact unit definitions.
Example with the default inputs (Cubic centimeters (cm³) 1): 1 cm³ = 0.004227 cups.
Formula: cup = cm³ × 0.00422675283773 (the same as cm³ ÷ 236.5882365)
- 1 cubic centimeter = 0.00422675283773 cups, from the exact definitions in NIST SP 811.
- Cups, ounces, tablespoons, teaspoons, pints, quarts, and gallons are US customary units: 1 US cup is 8 US fluid ounces.
- Exact on the typed decimals: at most 6 decimal places (6 significant digits below 0.0001), rounded half up.

Other questions people ask
How many cups are in a cubic centimeter?
1 cubic centimeter is 0.004227 cups, from the exact unit definitions (NIST SP 811).
How do I convert cc to cups?
Multiply by 0.004227: cup = cm³ × 0.00422675283773 (the same as cm³ ÷ 236.5882365). For example, 1 cm³ × 0.004227 = 0.004227 cups.
How do I convert cups back to cc?
Multiply by 236.588237, or type the cups into the second box and the converter works it out. 1 cup is 236.588237 cubic centimeters.
What is 188 cc in cups?
188 ÷ 236.5882365 = 0.79463 US cup, just under 4/5 of a cup. Type 188 in the cc box to see it.
Is a cc the same as a mL?
Yes. 1 cc (cubic centimeter, cm³) is exactly 1 mL, because a liter is 1,000 cm³ (NIST SP 811).
Is this a US cup or a metric cup?
A US cup, 236.5882365 mL. A metric cup is 250 mL, so 188 cc is 188 ÷ 250 = 0.752 metric cup.
