How many centimetres in a tablespoon?

1 US tablespoon is = 14.7867ml

1 metric tablespoon = 15ml

1 Imperial tablespoon = 17.75817ml

Generally, tablespoons and teaspoons used for cooking are not the most accurate. If you were to measure the volume of liquids with a graduated cylinder, you may find variation with different spoons available on the market.

However, in the pharmacy, one tablespoon is equal to 15 cc (or 15 mL). (One teaspoon is equal to 5cc or 5 mL).

Regardless of what you are measuring (water, milk, butter, sand, anything):

There are 14.7 ml in a tablespoon (US).

There are 17.7 ml in a tablespoon (Imperial/UK).

There are 20 ml in a tablespoon (AU).

Answer 2

Centimeters is a measure of length, while tablespoon is a measure of volume. However, if you multiply centimeters three times, getting "centimeters cubed" (cc) that will also be a measure of volume. One table spoon is equal to 15 mL, and one mL is equal to one centimeters cubed. Thus there are 15 cc in a tablespoon.

Answer 3

The volume of 1 US tablespoon is 14.786765 milliliters. 14.786765 milliliters are 14.786765 cubic centimeters.

Answer 4

There is no such thing as a cubic millilitre. The millilitre itself is a measure of volume.

Answer 5

1 teaspoon is 4.92892159 milliliters or 4.92892159 cubic centimeters.

Answer 6

1 cc = 1/15 tablespoon (one-fifteenth)

1 tablespoon = 15 cc
