How much is a third of a half cup?
2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons = 1/2 of 1/3 cup
explanation -
48 teaspoons = 1 cup
1 cup / 3 = 16
16 teaspoons = 1/3 cup
1/3 cup / 2 = 8
8 teaspoons = 1/3 cup
3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon
6 teaspoons = 2 tablespoons
6 teaspoons + 2 teaspoons = 8 teaspoons
2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons = 8 teaspoons = 1/2 of 1/3 cup
A half of a third of anything is one sixth. By all means use
cups, tablespoons and teaspoons but first make sure your tableware
has been calibrated to standard sizes.
