In practice
Fluid ounces to tablespoons is a kitchen-scale conversion in the US system: one fluid ounce is exactly 2 tablespoons, and a tablespoon is 3 teaspoons, so a fluid ounce is 6 teaspoons. That makes a quarter cup 2 fl oz (4 tbsp) and half a cup 4 fl oz (8 tbsp). The figures hold for US measures; a US tablespoon is 14.79 ml, a metric tablespoon is 15 ml and an Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, so imported recipes can come out slightly different.
