What is the ratio of 0.5 pints to 750 ml?

Answer 1

Convert to the same units then the units can be removed from the ratio and the ratio simplified

* In the UK where 1 pt = 20 fl oz ≈ 568 ml
→ 0.5 pt : 750 ml
= 0.5 x 568 ml : 750 ml
= 284 : 750
= 142 : 375
(this is approximately 3 : 8)

* In the USA where 1 pt = 16 fl oz ≈ 473 ml
→ 0.5 pt : 750 ml
= 0.5 x 473 ml : 750 ml
= 473 : 1500
(this is approximately 6 : 19)
