![**How to Convert Milliliters to Cups**
**Question:**
A cake recipe calls for 230.0 mL of buttermilk. How many cups is this?
**Solution Path:**
To convert milliliters (mL) to cups, you need to use a conversion factor that relates these two units.
**Step-by-Step Guide:**
1. **Starting Amount:**
- Enter the quantity in milliliters: **230.0 mL**
2. **Conversion Factor Integration:**
- Identify the conversion factor from mL to cups. Given that 1 cup is approximately 240 mL, the conversion factor is:
\[ \text{1 cup} = \text{240 mL} \]
- Therefore, to convert mL to cups, you can use the following formula:
\[ \text{Number of cups} = \frac{\text{mL}}{\text{240}} \]
3. **Calculate the Conversion:**
- Divide the quantity in milliliters by the conversion factor (240):
\[ \text{Number of cups} = \frac{230.0}{240} \approx 0.958 \text{ cups} \]
**Interactive Tool:**
The interactive question setup shows several fields and buttons for input and calculation. Here is a detailed breakdown of each part:
- **Left Section (Starting Amount Box):**
- You input the starting amount of buttermilk here (e.g., 230.0 mL).
- **Middle Section (Conversion Factor Box):**
- Individuals input the conversion factor that can convert mL to another unit.
The detailed blue buttons show various multiplication values, potentially related to different units:
- \(9.722 \times 10^5\), \(8.706 \times 10^5\), \(6.076 \times 10^4\), etc.
Additional numbers and constants like:
- 10, 4, 1, 0.06076, 0.9722, 100, 1000, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001.
- **Bottom Section (Unit Buttons):**
- Red Buttons for unit selection:
- "quart," "mL," "L," "cups."
- **Answer and Reset:**
- A button to display the calculated answer](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F4f8bd1e1-4938-4525-b5a7-30d670322ca3%2F2b9c3afc-cc16-4694-b2d7-a3d5539073f8%2Fiop8ao3_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
