Convert milliliter to cup (metric)
Please provide values below to convert milliliter [mL] to cup (metric) [cup (metric)], or Convert cup (metric) to milliliter.
1 mL = 0.004 cup (metric). To convert milliliter to cup (metric), multiply the value by 0.004; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cup (metric) = 250 mL). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 mL = 0.004 cup (metric)
- 1 cup (metric) = 250 mL
- 10 mL = 0.04 cup (metric)
- 100 mL = 0.4 cup (metric)
How to Convert Milliliter to Cup (Metric)
1 mL = 0.004 cup (metric)
Example: convert 15 mL to cup (metric):
15 mL = 15 × 0.004 cup (metric) = 0.06 cup (metric)

Milliliter
A milliliter (mL) is a unit of volume equal to one thousandth of a liter, commonly used to measure small quantities of liquids.
History/Origin
The milliliter was introduced as part of the metric system in the 19th century, aligning with the liter as the base unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI).
Current Use
The milliliter is widely used in science, medicine, cooking, and everyday measurements to quantify liquids and small volumes.
Cup (Metric)
A metric cup is a unit of volume measurement equal to 250 milliliters.
History/Origin
The metric cup was introduced as part of the metric system to standardize volume measurements, replacing various traditional cups used in different regions.
Current Use
The metric cup is commonly used in cooking and baking in countries adopting the metric system, especially in recipes and food labeling.
