Milliliters to metric cups Conversion
1 milliliters (mL) is equal to 0.004 metric cups (mcup).
1 mL = 0.004 mcup
or
1 mcup = 250 mL
Formula
To convert a volume from milliliters (mL) to metric cups (mcup), divide the volume in milliliters by 250
v(mcup) = v(mL) / 250
Examples:
Convert 500 milliliters to metric cups:
v(mcup) = 500mL / 250 = 2 mcup
